PSG playing the card to deny Kylian Mbappé his dream move

By -
Things are surely not going we'll between Kylian Mbappé and his club, PSG Paris Saint-German at the moment after the player announces to them in a letter, his decision not to activate the one year option in his contract.


PSG, who resigned the player following the end of his contract last summer knew this was coming but had hoped things would be different, and that they would be in a position to tie down the 24year old, for at least 2025.

Mbappé signed a two year contract with an option of one more but after another underwhelming campaign, which saw them get eliminated from the Champions League round of 16 by Bayern Munich, the Frenchman seems to have had enough.

His dream, which was to play for Real Madrid was denied last summer, but the two parties have since settled their differences after Mbappé apologized to Madrid and Perez following the failed move.

PSG has however reportedly decided to sell Mbappé this summer as failure to do so will see him leave for free next summer.

Reports also suggests that the club is ready negotiate a deal with anyone but Real Madrid, whose president, Florentino Perez had announced earlier that it will sign Mbappé but not this summer.

Desperate now, PSG have to sell Mbappé this summer because they will not be able to get him to sign an extension once it is August, and the player will be open to signing pre-agreement contract with another club in January.

PSG spent €180 million on signing Mbappé from AS Monaco in 2017 and resigning him last summer cost mouthwatering amounts - losing him for free will be bad business as the club had already lost some big names for nothing.

The decision to sell Mbappe this summer does not play well to the plans of Real Madrid, who are also currently short of options in attack and in the end, they might decide PSG's resolve by tabling a bid for the player.

Selling a franchise player like Mbappé comes with difficulty because only a selected few can accommodate him in their squad, hence, the Parisiens might have to go back on their decision not to negotiate with Los Blancos.

Ralf Rangnick proffered a permanent solution but United choose to make more casualties with Erik Ten Hag

Ralf Rangnick appeared to have unraveled the puzzle at Manchester United during his short stint as the club's interim manager but the hierarchy did not take heed to his priceless advice. Albeit the German did not enjoy the best of time in the helm of affairs in Old Trafford, Rangnick, who had proven to be more of a administrative minded man prior to his appointment at the club did left blueprints that could have healed the club completely. Looking back and you'll realize it could have been more worth it had speculations of him becoming the club's Director after leaving the Coaching role come to pass. Even in his early days as a professional football coach, Rangnick did not have a reputation of thriving when the stake is high but he flourishes more in an environment that gives him the avenue to build from scratch. The notion was proven truth during his time at Stuttgart, Hannover and even Schalke, where he helped all these teams finesse nightmares into glamour. His appointme

A sign of what is to come but no excuse for Chelsea's late capitulation in the London derby

Chelsea ended a run of three straight home defeats to Arsenal in an enthralling London derby match in the Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening. While many will see it as a positive omen for the host, which is rightly so, it was very poor game management by both the players and the manager to allow the visitors snatch a point later on the night. Arsenal was there for the taking. It was the worst display by Mikel Arteta's side in recent years and despite having a two goal cushion, Mauricio Pochettino's side were unable to see out the win from a very comfortable position. Cole Palmer and Mykaylo Mudryk continue to show signs of finally settling into their rhythm under Mauricio Pochettino, much to the delight of the home support as the Blues were all over their rival from the North for the first 70 minutes in the Bridge. Both players also scored in either half, with Mykaylo Mudryk scoring his first ever Chelsea goal in the Stamford Bridge with a wonderful cross-cum-shot, which caugh
