Mbappe And Secret Treaty With PSG President
JAKARTA - Kylian Mbappe's future drama is almost complete. The French striker reportedly decided to join Real Madrid next season.
Indeed, previously the story of Mbappe's departure from Les Parisien had changed interestingly. In fact, not only this season, but since 2022.
Interestingly, the club that is always associated with the 25-year-old striker is Real Madrid. Los Blancos actually had time to bid Mbappe when the player was still at Monaco.
However, Mbappe refused at that time and chose PSG because he did not get a play minute guarantee from Madrid.
The peak of the drama Madrid and Mbappe occurred in 2022, which is the third offer. While just one step away from flying to the Santiago Bernabeu, this French national team player turned around and chose to stay at PSG.

PSG at that time were reluctant to withdraw or stop their efforts to keep their star. A number of bonuses, allowances, and salary increases from PSG became a factor for Mbappe to deny Madrid's offer again.
Now, gradually Mbappe's future is starting to light up. Madrid successfully got the striker.
However, the spotlight is now focused on Mbappe's relationship with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) so that the player can say goodbye peacefully.
The essence of the problem is that the Mbappe and PSG roads are different, but how and when. Over time, the urgency to resolve the Mbappe case is increasing.
Both sides are already looking for a solution to avoid dramas like shadowing last season.
The shift in PSG's stance was echoed by Laure Boulleau, a former PSG player, at the Canal Football Club.
He said Mbappe's departure was imminent and a move to Real Madrid was trustworthy.
"We have the impression that we have undergone this soap opera," Boulleau commented.
Boulleau's statement is not without basis. He referred to the official publication of Le Parisien who surprisingly said that Mbappe had decided to join Real Madrid for next season.
The strong factor that made the club finally willing to release the star could not be separated from Mbappe's careful approach to PSG.
He did not want to worsen his relationship with loyal supporters of Les Parisien. In fact, Mbappe has reportedly made a secret agreement with Nasser Al-Khelaifi, PSG President.
As a sign of good intentions before leaving, Mbappe is said to be willing to give up 80 million euros on condition that he personally notify Al-Khelaifi about his final decision, either leave or renew his tenure at PSG.
Mbappe's story is complicated. His decision was influenced by financial, loyalty, and personal ambition, more than just transfers. Like modern football, which is an aspect of the relationship between players and clubs is also important.
Meanwhile, imagine how Madrid would offer Mbappe an offer. You see, the striker is willing to refuse an annual salary of 50 million euros, a contract signing bonus of 120 million euros, and other large additional incentives from PSG.
