    This feels like it’s about to get really messy.

    Dont think there’s much chance Mbappe goes to Saudi Arabia. PSG will presumably accept the bid anyway to try and force Real to submit one.

    Real Madrid have already spent €130m this summer and would have planned the financial ramifications of the Bellingham & Mbappe signings in 2023 & 2024 a while ago.

    Mbappe to the bench for a year?

      Honestly, hoping he goes, and then Real end up destroying their FFP status to sign him after. Fuck Real, and fuck all of these oil clubs.

        I’m not a fan of Real either and their income has been dubious at times, but I much prefer Real Madrid over PSG, Man City, Chelsea, etc.

      Either real madrid signs him or he will have a year of rest and relaxation while making like a 100m.

          well OP above assumed he would be threatened/punished with being benched, I am responding to that scenario, aka he would just not play for a year.

          I don’t think they will bench him, but they also won’t manage to sell him.

            They could just load him into a mass driver and fire him into the Sun. But nooooooooo murder’s illegal…

    I would love for him to stay at PSG obviously but only if he wants to. If he’s that obsessed about leaving he should do so ASAP.

    The only reason for him to stay at PSG this year is to cash a huge signing bonus by Real next year. Not sure that will benefit his image.

    Wtf is this. In one way I want this to happen just to see chaos ensue but on the other hand… Sports washing vanity projects are vile and further ruin this sport
