Imagine. Your PS5 has just let you down, and you choose a Nintendo 3DS to replace it. It’s a bit like the effect of the news broadcast on Monday evening by Picture. According to the German daily, the departure of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid is beyond doubt, and the Parisian leaders are already working to find him a successor.
And for that, still according to the overpowering Hamburg tabloid, which cites Italian sources, PSG will do something new with something old. No, it is not a question of recalling Didier Martel or Amara Diané, but Moise Kean.
The Italian international did not really disappoint during his loan from Everton in 2020-2021, with 17 goals in 41 games. But from there to imagining him succeeding the one who is perhaps the best player in the world, there is a chasm.
Credibility: 20%. A departure from Mbappé? OK, that wouldn’t be the surprise of the century either. A return of Kean? Why not, to succeed for example Mauro Icardi and make the number in attack. But the replacement of the first by the second seems like a big joke (or so PSG is run by Suicidal Tendencies fans).
Mbappometer: Despite all the reluctance expressed above, the needle is now clearly leaning towards Merengue. But hey, as long as the world champion has not affixed his signature at the bottom of the Madrid contract, under the gaze as greedy as moved by Florentino Perez, PSG fans can always believe it.
