I Spent Endless Nights Dreaming About Real Madrid – Mbappe

Kylian Mbappe has spoken about his dream of joining Real Madrid.
According to him, he had desired to play for the Spanish giants since childhood.

The France forward, 25, signed a five-year deal at the club in July after the expiry of his Paris St-Germain contract.

His presentation was delayed due to France’s involvement at Euro 2024, where they were knocked out at the semi-final stage by Spain.
But, speaking to a crowd of over 80,000 spectators at the Bernabeu, Mbappe told supporters he had dreamt of the moment he could call himself a Real Madrid player.
“I spent endless nights dreaming about one day playing for Real Madrid and today I am one happy guy,” said Mbappe.
“My family are so happy here, I can see my mum crying.
 
“It’s an incredible day for me, I’ve dreamt of this day since I was a kid and this day means a lot to me.
Mbappe, who was kitted out in the club’s new home kit and addressed spectators in Spanish, was introduced to the crowd by club president Florentino Perez.
Speaking to Mbappe before the Frenchman spoke to the crowd, Perez said: “The love that you felt for Real Madrid, and you identifying with this club since your childhood, made it possible for you to be here and to overcome those obstacles on the way to your dream.”
 
For Perez, Mbappe’s arrival was a long time in the making and comes three years after Real failed with a £137m offer for the World Cup winner.
PSG accepted a world record bid of £259m from Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal in 2023, but Mbappe rejected the move as it became apparent that he wanted to move to the Bernabeu.
Mbappe, who was offered a contract extension by the French club, was left out of PSG’s pre-season tour as a result but he was eventually reintegrated by manager Luis Enrique.
The forward left PSG having scored 256 goals in 308 appearances.

Transfer: Drama Looms As Mbappe Tells PSG He’ll Not Leave Club Under Any Circumstances

The French Ligue 1 champions also want to set a precedent and send a message to all players, regardless of who they are, that no one is bigger than the club.

Mbappe was recently left out of PSG’s squad for their pre-season as he has so far refused to sign a new contract with the club.

Paris Saint-Germain Give Kylian Mbappe Two-Week Ultimatum To Sign New Contract

PSG has given Kylian Mbappe ultimatum to sign a new contract.
According to Paris Saint-Germain, Mbappe must sign a new contract if he wants to stay at club.
PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi said the club will not allow the superstar France striker to walk away on a free transfer in 12 months’ time.
Mbappe, who has long been linked with Liverpool and Real Madrid in recent years, recently told the club he will not be triggering the one-year extension in his contract.
That means the top goalscorer at the 2022 World Cup will be a free agent next summer unless PSG cash in on his services.
Speaking at a press conference to introduce Luis Enrique as the club’s new manager following the sacking of Christophe Galtier, said: that they “want Mbappe to stay” but he “can’t leave for free”.
 
“We want him to stay but he can’t leave for free,” Al-Khelaifi told reporters.
“It was our oral agreement and he had expressed it publicly in an interview. So it’s not debatable. And I was really shocked to learn that he intended to leave for free.
“It’s very disappointing because Kylian is a fantastic boy, a real gentleman, and leaving for free, weakening the biggest French club, it’s not him. When I received this information, I was shocked and disappointed.”
Al-Khelaifi later added: “That’s why he has to decide next week, or at most in two weeks. And if he doesn’t want to sign a new contract, the door is open. It’s like that for him and for everyone else. No one is bigger than the club, no player, not even me. It’s very clear.”
Mbappe, who has scored 212 goals in 260 appearances for PSG rejected a transfer to Madrid last summer  before signing a new deal with PSG, which was initially announced as a three-year contract but which subsequently emerged as a two-year agreement to 2024, with an option of a third year, which he is now refusing to take up.
L’Equipe reporter Loic Tanzi recently indicated that Real Madrid, Liverpool and Man Utd are potential next destinations for Mbappe.
“They have to open the door (to a transfer this summer). In my understanding he will leave because he doesn’t want to renew and his position won’t change and I think PSG’s position won’t change so I think they will open the door (to a transfer) before the end of the market,” Tanzi told BBC World Service.
“The more complicated thing now is to find an agreement with Real Madrid because PSG won’t want to do any gifts to Real and the Spanish club will try for a low price because they will say they don’t want to pay a big amount of money for a player who is out of contract in a year.
 
“I think he wants to go to Real Madrid, but Liverpool is also there for many years as well. They kept contact with the family for many years. And I would add Manchester United because they will have a new project soon under new owners.

Transfer: It’s Impossible – PSG Issues Warning To Kylian Mbappe Over New Contract

French football powerhouse, Paris Saint-Germain have issued a warning to their striker, Kylian Mbappe.

PSG have again reiterated that Kylian Mbappe must sign a new contract or risk being sold this summer.

Last month, Mbappe wrote a letter to the Ligue 1 champions, making it clear he won’t extend his deal beyond June 2024.

But the club’s president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, speaking on Wednesday, stated that Mbappe will not be allowed to run down his deal.

“We do not want him to leave for free in 2024. Our position is clear. If Kylian wants to stay, we want him to stay.

“But he needs to sign a new contract. We don’t want to lose the best player in the world for free. It’s impossible,” Al-Khelaifi said.
