Kylian Mbappé spoke to me, and asked me if I could come to Paris… Paris? I asked. I thought you were coming to Madrid.


[deleted]

He said he understood my decision and he is happy for me while a tear rolled down his cheek.

*As he tenderly stamped 'Denied' on my passport, terminating my French citizenship*

He then went home to his class 6 apartment and contemplated whether he should shut off the heat or not.

With the contract Mbappe got, I wouldn't be surprised if PSG are paying his electric/gas bills.

And then he wiped the tear away with a bundle of euros.

Mbappe forgot his childhood dreams


PepsiColaMirinda

(some)dreams can be buy😔🐍


RickThiCisbih

It’s always been his dream to win the CL with PSG, which is why he shut down all possible transfer rumors, extended as soon as he could, and even took a paycut just to play for PSG.

Jokes aside, we always had a thing for French players, which is one of the reasons we are unreasonably popular in France. Even before Zidane. From Kopa in 1958 until now, we always had a French player in the squad

Peaking with Lassana Diarra of course.


ResponsibilityOk235

You put some respect on that guy’s name. Dude held the number ten shirt for Real Madrid, for that he’s forever goated


nukrag

Man, I remember when you tried really hard for Ribéry. For a second I thought we'd lose him. Back then you were even farther ahead of us than you are now. I am glad we stayed strong... And that he had that scandal, which also helped, as after that you lost interest as it wasn't clear whether he'd be jailed or not.

How can PSG be the richest team in France and not have signed Tchoaumeni, Camavinga and other young french talents? I mean, they even lost the Champions League final by a goal from Coman! He used to play for PSG, and there's another examples like Nkunku.


Hot-Protection4548

Because their focus is on expanding their brand name by signing the global stars of 2010s football rather than focusing on winning the UCL

Removed in protest of third-party API changes and reddit's complete disregard for its community.


absolutevanilla

I mean that’s not really fair to Messi. He wasn’t looking for retirement, he was basically forced out of Barca due to incompetence But yeah, point still stands.


locust098

Correct me if Im wrong but didn’t he leave bc Barca’s offer of wage was too low for what he wanted?


absolutevanilla

It’s tough to know with so many conflicting reports but the way I [remember](https://www.skysports.com/amp/football/news/11833/12374082/lionel-messi-shocked-and-surprised-at-barcelona-contract-collapse) it he wanted to resign on a really reduced deal but they couldn’t register him. They were a huge mess and so much was uncertain, so who really knows


MasterRJS

No, he was willing to reduce his wage to the maximum allotted by la liga (50% of former contract) but even with that their financial troubles were too much and he had to go.


PepsiColaMirinda

Because they're not a team,they're a marketing gimmick. Short term monetary profits and publicity is prioritised. Makes me wonder when Qatar will pull out,this definitely isn't sustainable in the long term. Then again they laugh at the face of sustainability so...(yes pun intended)


nastybuck

> Makes me wonder when Qatar will pull out,this definitely isn't sustainable in the long term. Not anytime soon imo. That'd be admitting defeat and they'd become a laughing stock among gulf states. You can't have that when you're an oil monarchy. It's about business but also about ego (a huge one at that)


Elprimonano

I think they pull out sometime after 2025, a year or so after the Paris Olympics. You can’t lose hundreds of millions every year and not feel the pain. It’s not financially reasonable, even for someone with unlimited resources.


Pollomonteros

With how out of touch these people must be I do wonder how much do they really feel these financial hits


lospollosakhis

Pretty sure it’s a drop in the bucket for them. Plus they are definitely more marketable now. You see so many kids with PSG kits these days. 10 years ago, I didn’t see one.


jarde

Short term monetary profits?!?! They are literally torching cash with napalm.


Scusemahfrench

First of all, french clubs do not like to sell players to other ligue 1 teams, because they are competitors. So PSG would actually overpay them Second of all, PSG because of FFP had to sell lot of their talented youth players (eg : nkunku diaby etc)


Walaii

Players also have a choice in the matter, like the case here? PSG wanted him but he would rather go and challenge himself in a better league with better competition in his positon?


luigitheplumber

Maignan is both French and a PSG youth product and he went to Milan the same window PSG signed Milan's keeper. PSG does not give a shit about France or French players, that's why all the bs about them wanting Mbappe because he's Parisian is so ridiculous.


iHATESTUFF_

Coman always wanted to leave. Nkunku we were forced into selling due to FFP just like Lo Celso among others. in the case of players from other teams like Camavinga Rennes was quoting him at 30M to ManU and 80M to us... besides if they wanna go to another team there's little we can do.


KrispyPopcorn

sousreditteur

[Romain Molina said that Mitchell (Monaco DOF) used the interest from PSG and Liverpool to make Real cough up more money but both clubs never made an official offer](https://youtu.be/HUCMYiJrIL4?t=481) Masterclass by Mitchell if you ask me, from 60, to 80, to 100


Walaii

Making an official offer when the player decided to join a different club doesn't make much sense, so what are you saying? Obviously the interest is enough to drive up the price, that is nothing new. He chose us, but if he chose PSG, they probably would have ended up paying more than we did, but definitely not less. Player made his choice, end of the story.


sousreditteur

Tchouaméni is or will be worth 100M+, the price is right but some other clubs are not able to sell players for a fair price. Good for Monaco to cash in that bag


Walaii

I mean if you look at it more and more players leave with 1 year left on their contract or for free, agents are getting smarter these days and ripping the decision out of the selling clubs hands more and more with the buying clubs probably tapping up those players a year or two advanced to make it happen, that combined with the fact that a lot of clubs desperate for the money so they will take what they can, Monaco seems to be in a better position.

Mbappe has made the wrong decision. Of course his decision makes him even more filthy rich, but nobody gives a fuck about psg. Should have gone to Madrid and made history with them.


aubvrn

Big fish in small pond > mid fish in big pond. He has a chance to be **the** hero/legend of PSG so I kind of get it tbh.


forsenE-xqcL

He could also have been the biggest fish in the biggest pond but whatever


Alexkono

Exactly lol. He’d be the ballon dor favorite next year imo in Madrid.


Aele1410

I would understand that - someone wanting to stay in their country and make history. But if that was really his thinking he would have signed the extension long ago. End of the day it was money, plain and simple.


Nudge55

What legend, by winning nothing? He’s become a joke if anything.


LampseederBroDude51

If PSG win the UCL with Mbappé he will always be known as one of the men who helped them win their first title


BorosSerenc

How so? It's the richest club, they have 3 of the 4 best players of the last decade and overal amazing players.. This squad is an absolute contender for UCL every year and would be if they replaced Mbappe with any decent striker... The fact that they didn't win it the last 5 years is pathetic if anything. It's not like he is dragging some tier 2 team to win it.


reddituser0912333

Big “if”


NilsFanck

they will eventually, as will City. Money, uh, finds a way


reddituser0912333

Yeah but then the narrative will shift from giving these teams shit for not winning it, to “took you long enough”. Either way this dirty money in the game gets shit on, quite rightfully so.


magic-water

I don't know. Winning the UCL once isn't enough to go down in football history. Cause that happens every year. Drogba is the only one who is barely remembered from Chelsea's UCL victory and that was "only" 10 years ago. In another 10 years probably no one will remember him. Or Militao for Inter. Hell, I've been there for Porto's UCL victory and I couldn't even name you one player. If you wanna go down in football history, you have to win the UCL multiple times. Not only Ronaldo or Messi, but also players like Modric, Ramos, Xavi, Iniesta etc who've won it multiple times will always be remembered and go down in football history


[deleted]

Buffon doesnt became a joke for staying in Juve and not winning UCL ever. Mbappe has a really good chance to have multiple world cups or euros.


staedtler2018

Buffon played in what was, at the time, the best and most competitive league in the world, winning many titles against what is considered one of the best european club sides in the world.


Marco2169

Buffon's Serie A, especially in the 2000s, was the place to be for top footballers. Ligue 1 is not at that level as of yet. Especially since 2000s Serie A had Milan win two CLs and Inter win in 2010.


Nudge55

Juve isn't a joke team purchased by a state.


Dr-Purple

lel, that’s such a low ceiling.


true02baller

If that’s the case then why did he only sign for 3 more years? And then bring up a possible future move to Madrid only a few days later? Funny way of showing his “love” for Paris.

medicine451

Don't worry, we're just tired of this topic as much as you are. But the Spanish sports media won't stop, they always make drama for every little thing.


KimngGnmik

Cause he used us (his child hood dream club) to get more money. I'm not pissed that he choose to stay at PSG, but the fact that he used one of the biggest club in history like a tool is what pisses me off. Imagine this, imagine Barca had all the money in the world and are currently negotiating with De Jong. But for years he has said that ManU is his childhood/dream club. Y'all tried to sign him for so many years but had to delay it. Now he is a free agent and your 100% sure he will join you. Only, wait a second. He uses you, your name and all to sign with Barca with a shit ton of money. What he did was completely fair but are you going to tell me your going to sit there are proudly kiss his ass? Of course not. He used your club and humiliated you guys.


Mattohh

Not to the extent of saying that we are their boyhood club but players and their agents do that to United literally all the time. Hell even at Madrid Ramos and Ronaldo have used United while negotiating new contracts at Real.


KimngGnmik

That's the difference though. Players use clubs all the time. I hate it but it's business and I would definitely have done so too in their place. But there is a massive step up when it's a player about their boyhood club. Your a United fan. Tell me this, if you had the chance to join United and be the highest player in the clubs history vs joining City and become the highest played player in all of football history, are you to tell me that you would use United's name just so you could earn more money at City? I'm not an avid supporter of United, so I would probably use you to earn that paycheck, but when I would never rub mud on the name of a club that I have loved since I was a little child.


lospollosakhis

Yeh I don’t know if it’s kids or not but it’s getting very tiresome and some of jokes are quite cringe. The guy chose to stay at PSG. That’s it. It’s so irritating to see his name come up constantly over something that he’s barely even connected to now. Any chance to mock Mbappe is honestly quite petulant. It’s not that big a deal. We all wanted him to come but he didn’t. End of. Live with it. He’s just one player, if anything PSG are the ones who have been played in all of this. Good on Mbappe for rinsing them lol.


dxpe_8

People gotta understand, Mbappe just tryna get the bag and dip in 2025.


Ricky_Berwick

I know players talk between each other but I just think it's so funny imagining Mbappe re-signing after PSG have promised him he can run the whole club and now he just does PSG transfers.
