Real Madrid: “Mbappe?.. we have a player better than him”
Once again, Kylian Mbappe has managed to get people talking about him and his future in recent days. Out of nowhere and just when it seemed to be forgotten, the news broke again that Real Madrid would not only sign Bellingham (who everyone in the Whites considered a strategic deal about to close), but would also try to persuade the French striker to appear at the Bernabéu next summer. The news was born in England, and the reaction that followed in Spain.
Well, time hasn’t changed one iota of Real Madrid’s decision regarding Mbappe and his future. Real Madrid does not think about the French player, but there is also no scenario involving negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain, let alone giving one euro to the Qatari team.
This road is completely closed. The idea of pumping money into the coffers of the Parisian club headed by Nasser Al-Khelaifi is not being thought of by Real Madrid leaders. There is no chance of that happening. A short-term strategy has been put in place that does not pass through Kylian Mbappe.
Time passes, and the problem of the striker and Paris Saint-Germain is still there. The bet of the current French champions is to develop a project around Mbappe, who has become a leader. Without Messi, his contract renewal would be easier due to the absolute leadership the former Monaco player is looking for.
Back at Real Madrid, the Mbappe case has long since stalled at Valdebebas. There is no intention to speculate again on the summer market of 2023. And not because of last year’s anger. It is an economical mathematical approach. In the beginning, out of respect for the French player in the fullest, they considered that Vinicius is now higher or at least performing better than the Frenchman, as is evident in match after match, as the Champions League final approaches.
The Brazilian’s performance was surprising in Valdebebas, but the truth is that the confidence in Vicenicius was complete and absolute since his arrival, at least by the leaders and those who bet on his signature, much more than some coaches until Ancelotti’s arrival.
Economically, there is no place for such a deal, starting with Mbappe’s salary and even lower due to the incompatibility with Al-Khelaifi and everything that PSG stands for. If Mbappe ends his contract in 2024, this means a change in the text, but it is something that does not concern anyone now in Valdebebas. They are very happy with Vinicius.
