Mbappé’s Reaction to Barcelona Rumors After Visiting the City: “Those Who Suggested It Know Nothing
The entourage of the Parisian striker responds to the recent rumors about his future
Real Madrid isn’t concerned about recent images showing Kylian Mbappé in Barcelona. The rumors stemming from them have received a direct response from the French player.
Kylian Mbappé’s inner circle hasn’t ignored the rumors surrounding the Bondy striker’s potential move to FC Barcelona. Speculations arose following images of the French forward in the Catalan city: his appearance at the airport, a week after it was revealed he wouldn’t renew with PSG, has opened a small window in favor of the Blaugrana club.
However, Mbappé’s closest associates have closed that window firmly, stating, “those who suggested it know nothing about my future.” These words from the Mbappé clan indicate that his sporting future is far from the Catalan side despite the recent rumors. The reason for the striker’s visit to Barcelona has nothing to do with football.
Mbappé arrived in the city accompanied by his friend and confidant, Achraf Hakimi: the former Madrid full-back is inseparable from PSG’s number 7. Both had gone to visit Morad. This urban artist has strong friendships with both PSG players, so it’s not surprising that the trip to Barcelona was for leisure rather than contractual obligations or negotiations.
Issue Resolved Thus, Real Madrid can rest easy with this confirmation from Kylian Mbappé. Negotiations with the Bondy striker are progressing well, and the proximity of an agreement between both parties increases tension with each new public appearance of the French forward. The latest, in Barcelona, has been a minor stir with no further consequences.
Rumors about other teams entering the race to sign the PSG’s current number 7 have quickly dissipated. While Liverpool and Arsenal were mentioned as possible rivals to the Spanish club, the entity presided over by Florentino Pérez remains the first and only option to win more titles and relevance until the end of his sporting career.
