‘The Tic-Tac Comes to an End’ – Even El Chiringuito Abandons Hope for Kylian Mbappe’s Move to Real Madrid

Real Madrid’s Calm Stance Amidst Kylian Mbappe Transfer Uncertainty

In the midst of ongoing speculation surrounding Kylian Mbappe’s potential transfer to Real Madrid this summer, the club has been actively projecting a sense of calm regarding the situation. Despite initial hopes and even coverage from outlets like El Chiringuito, it appears that the chances of Mbappe joining Real Madrid have dwindled.

Previously, it seemed inevitable that Mbappe would depart Paris Saint-Germain during this transfer window. However, recent developments suggest that relations between the player and his current club have undergone some level of reconciliation. The latest reports indicate that Mbappe is willing to forgo certain bonuses in an effort to reintegrate himself into the squad.

El Chiringuito’s Dramatic Take on the Situation

Meanwhile, in Spain, the well-known figure Josep Pedrelol kicked off the latest episode of his El Chiringuito show by dramatically declaring that ‘The Tic-Tac is over.’ This statement alludes to the symbolic ticking of the clock that once indicated the imminent arrival of Mbappe to Madrid.

El Chiringuito, while often steeped in theatricality and drama, holds a significant place in the Spanish football landscape. Notably, it was on this program that Florentino Perez initially introduced the concept of the European Superleague. In a subsequent appearance over a year later, Perez emphasized that ‘this Mbappe is not my Mbappe,’ reacting to the player’s decision to renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain for another term. These instances may indeed reflect Real Madrid’s acceptance of their current transfer prospects as the window draws to a close.
