The announcement of Kylian Mbappé’s departure from PSG having been made official by the principal concerned, it is now the timing of his arrival at Real Madrid which is expected and scrutinized. If the world champion did not mention the name of the Madrid club in his video posted on social networks Friday evening, there is no doubt that the rest of his career will be written in the Spanish capital from next season.
One thing is certain: the formalization of his arrival in Madrid will not take place imminently, PSG still having three Ligue 1 matches to play (Lyon, Nice, Metz) and the Coupe de France final to be played on the 25th. May against OL. On June 1, the Merengue will play their Champions League final at Wembley against Borussia Dortmund and given the importance of this deadline, the Madrid leaders will wait until they have played this meeting before communicating on the Mbappé file . President Florentino Perez does not want any possible distraction before this priority meeting which could allow Real to win the 15th Champions League in its history.
Once the final is played, the Madrid club will then have free rein to announce the arrival of Kylian Mbappé. Various Spanish media explain that the officialization of his arrival should take place between June 2 and June 14, the date of the start of the Euro in Germany (June 14 to July 14). Real would like to resolve this matter before the European Championship begins so that the question of the French international’s future does not interfere with the Blues’ news. A position shared by the striker, who recently explained that his situation would be clarified ahead of the competition.
A presentation at the end of July?
“People will know, I will arrive at the Euro with peace of mind,” Mbappé assured in an interview with Téléfoot at the end of March. People’s minds will also be at ease. It’s no longer a subject at the club (PSG), no one talks to me about it. I will go to the Euro with peace of mind and the certainty of wanting to do great things. »
The date of its presentation to the Santiago-Bernabeu public is, however, a little more vague. It cannot be done before June 30, since Mbappé will still be contractually linked to PSG. This will be conditional on the Blues’ progress at the Euro, which could stretch until July 14 in the event of a final.
If it was the case, the newspaper As are counting on a presentation during the second half of July, while Real must head to the United States at the very end of the month. If Didier Deschamps’ men were to be eliminated earlier in the competition, Kylian Mbappé could be presented without much delay. While his participation in the Olympics seems more and more improbable, the French striker will go on vacation immediately before returning to his new club and starting his new adventure in Spain…
