Body At PSG, Mind In Madrid: Can Mbappe Withstand The Pressure At The Parc Des Princes?
JAKARTA - The summer transfer window closed without Kylian Mbappe posing in Real Madrid's iconic white shirt.
Los Blancos have tried everything, even a deadline day offer of 200 million euros. But clearly, for Paris Saint-Germain it is not about money.
They do not want to sell Mbappe, although the player believes that PSG will open the door for him in the final year of his contract. Both Real Madrid and Mbappe believe 200 million euros is enough.
Now Real Madrid have to look forward, until 2022, when they will get Mbappe on a free transfer. From January 1 next year, Mbappe can hold talks and even sign a contract that will start on July 1.
As for Mbappe, now he has to face the next four months without renewing his contract at PSG. Considering he had already rejected five proposals.
MARCA reported that Mbappe turned down 45 million euros a year from the French club on Wednesday.
This means that Mbappe must be strong to play under pressure, both from his teammates and Les Parisiens supporters. The other players at PSG want him to stay, and they will always be in his ear at all times.
The fans, meanwhile, proved to be whistling to Mbappe when the PSG team was introduced this season.
However, PSG will still do their best to renew the striker's contract so that they can keep the Lionel Messi-Neymar-Mbappe trident.
