Kylian Mbappé, 26-year-old striker for Real Madrid and the French national team, spoke to beIN SPORTS this week. He took the opportunity to talk about his departure from Paris Saint-Germain last summer, after 7 years at the club, which he believes was only made possible by the Casa Blanca.
Mbappé “it was the only club I would have left PSG for.”
“I spent seven years at PSG, it was an honor. I think maybe I didn’t say it enough, didn’t show it enough, but I was always aware of where I was and what a great club PSG is.”
“I’ve always said it’s the biggest club in France and one of the best in the world. I just left to go to the biggest club in the world. I always said it was the only club I would have left PSG for.
Mbappé “I had this dream of playing there”.
If I hadn’t been able to go to Real, I would have stayed at PSG all my life. I had this dream of playing there and I’m very happy with that. But of course I always watch PSG games, I have friends in the team and they’re playing well at the moment.”
A nice speech, as Mbappé knows how to make them to try to please. Here, some Parisians may be happy to see that he’s saying something positive and that only Real Madrid could have made him leave. Just as the Madrilenians may love it when he talks about “the biggest club in the world”. It even makes you wonder if these words are not just for their own good.
In any case, the striker is gone, and the episodes of disrespect, whether in deed or word, cannot be swept away by this communication campaign. For some perhaps, but on the whole it’s too late.
We’re now waiting above all for the page to be completely turned, with the end of the financial dispute between PSG and Mbappé.
