Real Madrid Player Shares Thoughts on Kylian Mbappe’s Transfer Decision
The Ongoing Kylian Mbappe Transfer Saga: Real Madrid’s Hope and Player Insights
The protracted Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid transfer saga is far from new and has spanned several years. This summer, it appeared that the French forward was on the brink of departing PSG due to contract issues, with a potential move to Santiago Bernabeu looming large. However, the plot took yet another turn.
Mbappe has been reintegrated into the PSG first team since then, and there are even hints that he might consider signing a contract extension with the French club.
Such a move would quash any hopes Real Madrid had of securing Mbappe as a free agent next summer. The future remains uncertain.
While there are indications that Mbappe might extend his stay at PSG, no formal developments have transpired in that regard. Additionally, rumors suggest that even if he does sign a new contract with the Ligue 1 champions, an exit clause for 2024 could be included.
Aurelien Tchouameni, who is familiar with Mbappe, recently shared his thoughts on his French national teammate.
As reported by AS, Tchouameni commented on Mbappe and the possibility of him joining Real Madrid during the past summer transfer window:
“It was a possibility in the summer.”
Tchouameni went on to mention:
“Every club in the world wants him. Now he’s at PSG, so we’re not going to talk any more about it. We are very happy with what we have right now.”
The future remains uncertain for Mbappe. Despite the events of the past summer transfer windows, it feels inevitable that the Frenchman will eventually don the Royal White jersey at some point.
During this summer, there was much speculation about Tchouameni’s own future at Real Madrid, particularly after he seemed to lose his place in the starting XI during the second half of the previous season. However, he appears to be back in contention now, thanks to Carlo Ancelotti’s change in formations, currently employing a 4-4-2 with a midfield diamond.
