Kylian Mbappé is clearly tempted by Real Madrid, but at a time when FC Barcelona would need an offensive star, the profile of the PSG star does not stick with Barça.
FC Barcelona failed to reassure themselves on Sunday against Real Madrid, the formation of Ronald Koeman falling to his historic rival in a Camp Nou who already seems to be resigned to living a long and hard season in La Liga. In the standings, Barça wakes up in ninth place with only two wins in the last five games. All is not lost, but the workforce of the Dutch technician seems very light, especially on the offensive plan where Memphis Depay is no longer unanimous, despite a successful start for the former Lyonnais. Looking ahead to next season, the Catalan club know that they will need a real additional scorer, but that the hypothesis of seeing Kylian Mbappé sign for Barcelona is to be forgotten. Even if the PSG striker will be free at the end of the season, which financially is an important aspect, his game will not accommodate at all Barça style and recruiting him would be a big mistake, confided Albert Ferrer, legendary former defender of the FC Barcelona.
Mbappé and Haaland do not have the game for Barcelona
Confiding in the Mirror, the one who has worn Barça’s jersey at the highest level more than 200 times is clear about the next Barcelona transfer window. “ Let’s see how it goes with Memphis Depay but it’s not really a number 9. Remember that Barca have lost Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez in two years. That’s an average of 50 goals per season. To win on a regular basis, they need a top striker. But you have to consider that the way Barca play is very special. They will still have around 70% possession, which means opponents won’t leave any space (…) I’m not saying Kylian Mbappe or Erling Haaland wouldn’t fit in, but they might not play the game they are playing with. they feel comfortable. Barca therefore need a striker, but have to be careful about what kind of striker they need given the circumstances and the club’s philosophy. “, Explained Albert Ferrer, who does not see Kylian Mbappé integrate into the game played in Barcelona.
