The UEFA Champions League match that took place yesterday night provided a strong indication of how Kylian Mbappe will perform against La Liga opponents, in case there were any uncertainties about his performance.
During the first leg of the Round of 16 match between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Sociedad, which took place at the Parc des Princes, the prospective player for Real Madrid was already on the scoreboard by the 58th minute.
If recent allegations from Mundo Deportivo are to be believed, the management of Real Madrid was disturbed by the interest that revolved around Mbappe’s dominance over the Spanish style of play.
As a matter of fact, the player is that much closer than ever before to making the big-money transition to Los Blancos, which has been anticipated for a considerable amount of time.
Being a spectator from the stands
A representative from the club was reportedly there in the grandstand to see Kylian Mbappe play in France, as stated in the most recent report from the Spanish media source.
The goal was to observe and evaluate the player’s development over the course of many years, particularly in the time leading up to his major transfer to Spain.
Not only did Mbappe score one goal, but he also took four shots on target, hit the woodwork once, and squandered one major opportunity on the night. It goes without saying that the outcome would have left a nice taste in the mouth of the representative.
They are making progress in the discussions.
According to reports, Mbappe has already made up his mind to quit the French club, and it will only be a matter of weeks before the formal announcement is made.
However, Paris Saint-Germain is unrelenting in its quest of a renewal, and they are continuing to entice the player with their considerable financial resources.
They give him a gross salary of €70 million every season in addition to the entire loyalty bonus of €80 million that he gave up over the summer of last year.
If Mbappe wants to sign with the club of his dreams, he is well aware that he will have to make a considerable financial sacrifice in order to do so. In spite of this, he has the ambition of becoming the player with the highest salary on the team, surpassing players such as Vinicius Jr. and Jude Bellingham.
Real Madrid seems to be the favored destination for the 2018 FIFA World Cup champion, despite the fact that Arsenal and Liverpool are competing for the opportunity to recruit Mbappe.
