PSG expect Real Madrid to ‘insult’ them with a ridiculous offer for Mbappe
The merry-go-round with Kylian Mbappe continues as Real Madrid continue to keep their eyes peeled to sign the Frenchman as his relationship with Paris Saint-Germain continues to fracture.
Recent reports from French outlet RMC Sport suggest that the ball is now entirely in Madrid’s court, with the Galacticos holding all the power in the negotiations – and the French giants expect an insultingly low offer from Madrid for the 24-year-old World Cup winner.
Real Madrid’s move
Los Blancos find themselves in a rather lucrative position, with Mbappe seemingly keen to join, but Paris Saint-Germain maintaining their stern position to keep him or let him go for a hefty fee.
The Parisiens seem to be fighting a losing battle because Mbappe has all the impetus to see out his contract which ends in 2024 and then leave on a free transfer, or PSG will have to accept a lower offer from Madrid if it comes in.
Saudi Arabian side Al Ahli had made a monumental proposal for Mbappe for over 300 million euros and a salary that was previously unheard of in football history.
However, Mbappe seemingly has his heart set on Madrid after snubbing them once before. Madrid can now make a move for him and perhaps even send in an offer of around 100 million euros.
Although from RMC’s reports – it may end up being even lower if Madrid think PSG’s hands are tied.
PSG running out of time
PSG, who are fast running out of options, may have no choice but to accept any proposal that the Galacticos may put on the table, or risk losing Mbappe for free next year.
To enforce their stance, the Parisians could phase Mbappe out of the squad, after already leaving him out of their preseason tour.
If they run out of time and cannot sell him in the summer, leaving him on the bench would be a last resort to try and obtain a fee for him in the winter.
But even so, they will most likely turn a huge loss and lose their best player, meaning they will suffer on the pitch as well.
The next few weeks will be key in seeing whether this incredibly dramatic transfer saga finally ends.
Real Madrid’s start to the season has been nothing short of exemplary. The Merengues have won every game since the dawn of the campaign, going unbeaten over the course of six games.
However, coach Carlo Ancelotti has yet to unearth the maximum potential of his squad, as injuries to key players and some notable absentees have prevented Real Madrid from flexing their muscles.
Arriving this summer on a six-year contract, Arda Guler has not been fortuitous enough to don the Royal White jersey yet, owing to a knee injury he endured early in the pre-season tour of the US.
But after missing out on the initial stages of the campaign, his return is closer than ever.
Arda Guler aching to make his debut
Indeed, as per Diario AS, he has fully recovered from his injury and is close to playing his first match for Real Madrid.
The Turkish sensation cannot wait to play and apparently will be back with the group on Monday as he can finally shake off the rust and be reintegrated within the squad dynamics.
Guler has missed some important games in La Liga thus far, as well as the Champions League opener versus Union Berlin, which Madrid won with a late Bellingham strike.
However, the season is still long, and the 18-year-old will finally be able to participate in the upcoming matches, with El Clasico also on the horizon.
Oozing talent
After a thorough investigation, the Madrid sports management came to the conclusion that Guler would be a suitable attacking addition who is poised to fit the team dynamics like a glove.
As a result, everyone at the club is excitedly anticipating his return from injury because he will have plenty of possibilities this season.
The player garnered immense attention in the summer transfer window and Real Madrid are thus looking forward to seeing him in action.
