Yeah we won't see any effect until Jan sadly
Kylian Mbappe
- Thread starter bosskeano
- Start date
If we do happen to sign him, who would we need to help fit him in the team?
If other players want his wages they should be trying to be as good as him.
mbappe has said he’s not signing an extension so psg may want to cash in.
PSG would sell to us than Madrid if the takeover happens. But i think Mbappe only wants Real.
Offer him shares in whatever club-adjacent development project the '92' have planned, along with a slice of something in Qatar, and he might start thinking differently, particularly if we agree to a 3 year long contract, so he has flexibility, with a final year 2/220m break clause. This is a guy who could have boarded a plane last summer and signed a contract with RM for obscene money, with nothing PSG could do to stop him, and was still persuaded to sign a new deal. Someone , in fact, who's turned down Madrid 3 times at different junctures. I don't think his decision-making is as myopically Madrid centred as some reports would have us believe.
Yeah convinced he is only interested in Real
This would be an interesting idea -- just like how startups attract talent. Stock options in a holding company like the 92 Foundation.

They aren't letting an asset leave for free
He is extending for probably another big fee.
He’s probably doing a Messi where he wants an obscene new contract plus wage hike each season. The thing is I’m not quite sure he’s worth it.
Think he would create toxicity at United.
The guy is one of best players in world
Both things can be true. He seems like someone who wants to call the shots wherever he is. In the wrong dressing room he could create some issues.

Where to?
You beat me to it
Intimidation tactics aside (which worked before), they can't do much. They can't even use the threat of not playing him as that's ridiculous stance to do with a player like Mbappe.
He is clearly waiting to see if the Glazers stay or not.
Is it me or does mbappe look a lot older than he actually is, he already has a lot of lines on his face that you expect people to develop in their mid to late 30's
It’ll be a left hand-right hand transfer to Utd once they complete the takeover. Cost the Qataris nothing and Mbappe gets his transfer so win win
Real seem to cope well enough with egos
We’ve had DDG in our dressing room for the last 4 years with those crazy wages if that didn’t destabilise the dressing room nothing will

Mental if it's confirmed...
I thought Perez himself had said no more signings
I think Modric and Kroos would be learning arabic if Perez made them extend to play with Joselu
No you're correct. It's from looking up at Ronaldo posters for too long.
Tchouameni out to balance the books?
If the Glazers stay, we couldn't even attract an Mbappe tribute act.
Can’t see it being true but it shows what level we as a club really are on. We should be able to afford this as well but we’re constantly told we need oil money to do it.
Ridiculous price by the way. Ronaldo and Messi in their prime would be worth that, not Mbappe

We need to hire Macron as our sporting director to hijack this deal.
I’d take him even if he looked like David Attenborough
Oh no! The dream would be over!
Is this a coping mechanism where you are trying to make it out that he's too old and already past it anyway?
That would be just stupid. A player we don’t really need, who is a free agent in 1y, for the biggest transfer fee ever. When we have so many other shortcomings in the squad.
Hope levy is watching and realises losing kane on a free is stupid.
