An Arab Fan Asks Florentino to Sign Mbappé, and His Response is Gold: ‘I Agree With You…’
Florentino Pérez is known for his close connection with fans. On every Real Madrid expedition, if he’s there, he’s undoubtedly the main star in the dressing room. Many supporters take advantage of this proximity to suggest signings or ask any kind of question. The Mbappé case, obviously, takes the spotlight.
Even in Saudi Arabia, he doesn’t live tranquilly when it comes to this matter. The air is filled with a lot of Madridismo from Arab fans of the white team, and a meeting between fans and Florentino Pérez brought back one of the standout moments.
A fan, camera in hand, recorded Florentino and straightforwardly said to him, “You’re the best president. We want Mbappé,” pointing directly to the Real Madrid president. This brought a smile to Florentino’s face, and he responded with a remark that quickly went viral on social media.
“I agree with you,” Florentino replied to the fan, as he left the scene with laughter, reminiscent of a moment from the past summer when he was asked about Mbappé.
A Historic Question In the streets of Madrid, people would approach Florentino and say, “Sign Mbappé,” just as the saga was about to explode in the last transfer window, before the player stayed grounded without traveling to PSG’s preseason. Eventually, everything was resolved, but it left a response for posterity, also with laughter, similar to what he had to say today in Arabia.
“Yes, but not this summer,” he commented on the question of signing the Bondy-born star. The steps were taken in the right direction, and now, with the saga in full swing, it’s time to face reality and sign Mbappé as a free agent in the market.
