Because of Kylian Mbappe: PSG sports director Leonardo calls for a penalty for Real Madrid
Florentino Perez – Mbappe – Leonardo Al-Khelaifi
Real has been flirting more or less openly with Kylian Mbappe for some time. PSG boss Leonardo is not very enthusiastic about it.
Paris Saint-Germains sporting director Leonardo has made serious allegations against Real Madrid. He accused those responsible for the Spanish record champions of having prepared a free transfer for PSG star Kylian Mbappe for a long time.
At the Festival dello Sport in Trento, Leonardo said: “In Madrid they will deny it, but I think Real have been planning Mbappe’s free transfer for a long time. They have been talking about him there for two years. That must be punished.”
At Real, he recognized “a lack of respect for Mbappe”, the Brazilian ex-professional continued.
PSG: Kylian Mbappe wanted to join Real Madrid this summer
Mbappe’s contract with PSG expires next summer, when the Ligue 1 top scorer will actually be available for a free transfer. Interested clubs are actually only allowed to officially start talks with him six months in advance without first contacting his employer.
Mbappe had spoken publicly for the first time this week about his failed transfer to Real Madrid in the summer and emphasized that he had clearly formulated his change request at the time. PSG, however, rejected late offers from the Spanish capital.
Although the 22-year-old moved to Real a few months ago, Leonardo has not yet given up hope of an extension for Mbappe: “Our plan is to extend with Mbappe. Nothing has changed about that. Kylian is a jewel, he is incredibly perfect for PSG. We never planned PSG’s future without him. “
Leonardo’s hopes are evidently not entirely unjustified. A few days ago, Mbappe’s mother Fayza Lamari revealed that there are currently talks with PSG. “We’re talking right now and everything is going well,” she said Le Parisien . With her son, “everything can change from one day to the next”.
