And here we go again my Kyky. Every day (or almost), 20 minutes takes stock of the latest advances and rumors more or less based on the future of Kylian Mbappé, whose relations with PSG follow the inverse curve of global warming. Departure to Real Madrid this summer or not? Spread the word, the Mbappometer is back.
Thursday July 6
Cameroon after Florida. While Kylian Mbappé continues his vacation far from Paris and the ultimatum issued Wednesday by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, the Iberian media remain as passionate about this new season of Kyky’s choice, a big-budget Franco-Spanish co-production. The sports press title on the rant of “NAK”, whileThe Chiringuito reveals the rest of the scenario, through its star presenter Josep “Tic-Tac” Pedrerol.
For more than four minutes, alone in front of the camera and with these carnival-style visual and sound effects that are the hallmark of the show, the other “Pep” predicted the near future of the saga. With a starting premise, quite correct: “Only PSG is in a hurry. Florentine [Perez] is quiet, very quiet. Mbappé is calm. “According to Pedrerol, Real would only discuss with Fayza Lamari, and especially not with the Parisian club, who wants to see his star extend a contract which does not stretch beyond June 2024, or see her leave against a big transfer, so as not to lose it without touching anything next summer.
Kyky’s mother would play the matchmaker to submit the Merengues offer: “200 million for the whole operation”. “Then, PSG manages with Mbappé: 150 for the Parisian club and 50 for the player, or 120 and 80…”.
Credibility: 30 %. Honestly, the script is solid and perfectly believable given the situation. The concern is that Pedrerol has already made Paco Rabanne-like predictions in the past, such as in May 2022, when he announced that the captain of the Blues would join Real “the first week of July”. 15 days ago, still in the Chiringuitos, the columnist Paco Buyo announced a signing “around July 23”. Mind you, this falls about the end of Nasser’s two-week ultimatum…
Mbappometer: We say to ourselves that the PSG will end up reviewing its claims frankly downwards so as not to find itself “brocouille” next year. Real could therefore win its war of attrition.
