In the name of the mayor. After Karl Olive’s mysterious tweet on a supposed extension of Kylian Mbappé at Paris Saint-Germain, the mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, spoke on Wednesday of a deal done at “95-99%” between Real and Madrid. Parisian striker. A figure that does not seem to be shared by the major figure of the Chiringuito, the immense Josep Pedrerol.
The latter still made a remarkable telephone intervention, with sound effects and dramatic drums on the set of the Spanish program. And a hardly optimistic message: “every day that passes, it gets worse and worse”. Followed by another: “the signature of Kylian Mbappé is badly embarked”.
