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.
Wednesday, June 21
Obviously, Florentino Perez did not convince everyone. Monday, when formalizing the arrival of Joselu, the president of Real Madrid assured that the 33-year-old center-forward on loan from Espanyol was already the last summer recruit on the Merengue coast, after Jude Bellingham , Fran Garcia and Brahim Diaz. But we don’t do it brand. The Madrid sports daily has finely observed that the Spanish international had taken the number 14 left free by Casemiro since his departure from Manchester United last summer. In other words: the flocked tunic of 9 remains an orphan after the Saudi exile of Karim Benzema.
Unheard of in the glorious history of the club, according to brand, so shocked that the newspaper made its front page this Wednesday, with this shocking title: “this jersey is waiting for Mbappé”. As a reminder, legends such as Alfredo di Stefano, Santillana, Hugo Sanchez, Ronaldo (the Brazilian) and Cristiano Ronaldo (during his first year in Madrid) have in turn carried the 9 to Real, before, therefore, Benzema.
Inevitably, only a cador can assume such a succession and since it will not be Erling Haaland, who will remain in City according to his agent Rafaela Pimenta, it is necessarily Kylian who must stick to it. CQFD. The newspaper borders anyway, indicating that Perez, Real and his legendary jersey can still wait a year before adopting the captain of the France team.
Credibility: 50%. Frankly, we did not see this argument coming, but it defends itself. Even if Mbappé is faithful to No. 7 at PSG and No. 10 in Blue, we do not see him refusing such a “privilege”.
Mbappometer: We lean a little on the side of Florentino Perez. Until the next contradictory info.
