It was not an easy moment in 2022, when weeks before the Champions League final, Kylian Mbappé began to stop answering the phone, he forgot about that shirt given by Real Madrid on his birthday and many other promises made in the previous months. The answer came on Saturday (May 21), when he dared to tell the president of the white club hours before the official announcement, his renewal agreement with PSG.
For Florentino Pérez and all of Real Madrid it was a hard blow to acceptbut the one who did it best, without a doubt, was the president of Real Madrid, who after a few days began to see the panorama in a different way, forgetting the resentment and giving way to the most appropriate way of finding the place and the moment to be able to accommodate the arrival of Kylian Mbappé in the future.
Complete message of Mbappé’s farewell: “I am leaving France, but I will carry PSG in my heart”
Real Madrid remained on the sidelines during the 22-23 season and what he especially did not want to do is participate in the market that was set up last summer, when PSG learned first-hand that Mbappé did not want to make use of the clause by which he could extend the contract until 2025.
Once the forward resolved his conflict with PSG, for that year in which he resigned, the Frenchman began to send signals for Real Madrid to come to his aid after a few months. The leaders of the white club let a few months pass, and even the first weeks of January 2024, to fit all the pieces together in February and secure a signing that they have denied, but which was evident due to the desire of both parties.
During all this time, Real Madrid, assimilating what happened in 2022, has denied the major. Was his tactics to avoid past mistakes and, especially, so that PSG did not botherand had time to assimilate what has been an ending announced over time.
Pride and money have no longer had a place in this game. Al Khelaifi has been able to do nothing. Not Qatar’s money, either. Not even Macron’s pressuresthe same ones that made him greatly regret his decision in 2022, and that even reached his family.
Mbappé, at the time of his commitment to Real Madrid, assumed that nothing was going to be like in 2022 and that I had to accept some roles as an essential condition to ride a wave of a winning team, such as the one led by Carlo Ancelotti.
To close the circle, There is one step left after the one Mbappé took on Friday afternoon. The final one is missing, the announcement of his arrival at Real Madrid and so on, but that will arrive in the first week of June.
