The contract of around 630 million euros does not scare Florentino Perez, the president of Real, who is ready for the second attack. The Frenchman can leave PSG in 2024, but in Spain they expect him earlier.
"The best should be at Real Madrid", said Guti, talking about Kylian Mbappe, who turned 24 yesterday. The French footballer has half celebrated, after that extraordinary World Cup, he escaped the trophy in the final.
Mbappe is a phenomenon and with Guti's theory he should be transferred to the Bernabeu.
The former midfielder is not the only one in Madrid who thinks so, there are many who ask Florentino Perez to try again in the summer.
Made for Madrid - "I forgave him immediately after he said 'no'," Guti said for 'Chiringuito'. - When I see him play for PSG, I get angry not only for Real, but also for La Liga. Someone like him would give a lot of strength to our championship, which should have the best in the world. The fans felt bad because we all saw Mbappe as a new player for Real.
It was a big disappointment. But it was a personal decision and Madrid cannot close the doors to such a spectacular player. Mbappe is a player born for Real. To do what Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have done, he must play for Real. There are good elements on the market, but none like it. Haland maybe, but a step below him".
What about Florentino Perez? It is reflecting. You are listening. The disappointment of a few months ago still burns. The president of Real was convinced that he would take the attacker, but many factors between Doha and Paris ruined the plans. In Qatar, they offered 486 million euros between the firm, the loyalty bonus and a monstrous salary (72 million euros per season). Macron also had an impact.
He holds back – And Mbappe signed a 2-year contract, 2022-24. Next summer he can decide on the extension option until 2025, otherwise he will be free 12 months later. At PSG, the player is partially happy. In a way, he paid off the debt with the emir of Qatar, playing a great World Cup.
The gate is open - Real Madrid are looking for a replacement for Benzema and the fans are looking for Mbappe. Perez said in May: "He will regret not coming." Then he did not speak and this has two explanations. First: no player is above the club. Second: as long as Perez is president, Real's door will not be closed for Mbappe.
The match is open. The World Cup could prompt Real to increase their offer. A mega-offer, which between the card, salary and sponsors goes to a billion. In any case, Kylian Mbappe will win. Everyone wants to cover it with gold.
