PSG seems to have kept Mbappe once again, with both sides announcing an extension (making sure the Paris team doesn’t lose him for nothing). This is summer transfer Second, Real Madrid does not have a French striker.
Relevo said that when he saw how difficult the situation was to go (if he kept pursuing Mbappe), captain Carlo Ancelotti soon had another option: to focus on bringing Harry Kane from Tottenham, with a backup goal of Victor. Osimhen (Napoli).
However, Florentino Perez dismissed it, declaring Real Madrid there is only one plan: sign Mbappe in 2024.
That is in case Mbappe can leave Paris on a free transfer. But with this player ‘going into the water’, compromising to return to training and playing recently for PSG (after being dropped from the first team), it is unlikely that he is ‘free’ to leave.
The La Liga giants were advised to give up Mbappe if he renewed PSG, thinking instead that it would be much better to bring Erling Haaland from Man City.
The Spanish press evaluates that Real Madrid took a big gamble with Mbappe and it is unknown whether it will be successful or not. But in the short term, that risks making it difficult for Ancelotti’s team this season, when Karim Benzema has left and been replaced by Joselu, and Vinicius is currently sidelined (6 weeks) due to injury.
Also lucky for Real Madrid is that rookie midfielder Jude Bellingham integrates very well, is temporarily struggling to score with 4 goals after the first 3 matches of La Liga 2023/24, helping the team win 9 absolute points.
