JAKARTA - Kylian Mbappe expressed his gratitude to everyone who had been a part of Paris Saint-Germain and who is currently still at the club. The only figure who did not get a thank you in the Mbappe farewell video was the PSG official himself, none other than the CEO of Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

There was something strange when Mbappe said goodbye to the video uploaded on social media. He thanked everyone.

Even Mbappe mentioned former coaches such as Unai Emery, Thomas Tuchel, Mauricio Pochettino, Christophe Galtier and current coach Luis Enrique. He also thanked the club's sporting directors Leonardo and Luis Campos.

It didn't stop there. The 25-year-old also expressed his gratitude to all staff at the club, including physiotherapists, kitman, assistant coaches, officers at the club office, and even field officers.

"All who play an important role and have given everything to the club. Those who deserve the award," said Mbappe.

Everyone has been called, including those who clean the field and training facilities and figures who are not taken into account like the kitman.

Only one is not called Mbappe at all. And that figure, ironically, occupies the highest position in the club. Ya CEO of club Nasser Al-Khelaifi is not at all called Mbappe.

From the video, it was finally revealed that there was a problem between Mbappe and Al-Khelaifi. Mbappe did not thank the figure who made him the second most expensive player in the world after Neymar when he was bought from Monaco.

Investigate a calibaration, Mbappe turned out to have been disappointed with Al-Khelaifi. On one occasion when Mbappe met and spoke with Al-Khelaifi, he expressed his desire for the club to recruit a number of players who were believed to be able to boost the club's achievements, especially in the Champions League.

Mbappe conveyed three players, namely Aurelien Tchouameni (Real Madrid), Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona) and Milan Skriniar (Inter Milan). In addition, he asked PSG to recruit coach Zinedine Zidane.

At that time, Zidane had stated that he was only willing to return to handle the club strengthened by Mbappe. The news of PSG wanting to bring in Zidane also surfaced.

But all of that was immediately swallowed by the wind, aka there was no more news about the recruitment of the legend Les Bleus, who succeeded in bringing Real Madrid to win three Champions League trophies.

All Mbappe's hopes were not realized by Al-Khelaifi. Only the Skriniar was finally brought in by PSG from Inter at the beginning of the 2023 season.

Al-Khelaifi's attitude in rejecting Mbappe's request even though to increase PSG's achievements in European competitions made the French national team player disappointed. Their relationship also worsened even though it did not surface.

Mbappe was even stronger in his confidence to leave PSG. He then rejected the offer of contract extension offered by PSG.

Even though he got a very high salary increase. Mbappe just wanted to complete the contract and then left Les Parisiens on a free transfer.

PSG finally made a mistake after Mbappe refused to sign a new contract. All efforts were made. Even Al-Khelaifi intervened with Mbappe's family.

He also persuaded Mbappe's mother to ask her son not to leave the club. At that time, Al-Khelaifi offered Mbappe a big contract through his mother.

Apparently, Al-Khelaifi's communication strategy became a blunder. Mbappe didn't like what Al-Khelaifi was doing. This is what makes their relationship instead of improving even more damaged.

Mbappe finally really decided to leave PSG. He also said goodbye without thanks to Al-Khelaifi.

After saying thank you and saying goodbye, Mbappe will join Madrid next season. Although there is no official information yet, Mbappe has almost been confirmed in the Los Blancos uniform.
