In the summer, speculation arose about Kylian Mbappe’s move from PSG to Real Madrid. The star now admits that he wanted to leave Paris.
PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe first admitted that he wanted to leave his club in the summer. “My position was clear: I said I wanted to leave,” he said RMC Sport. In the past few months, Mbappe has been linked to a transfer to Real Madrid. Despite great interest from Los Blancos, however, there was no change.
“I asked for a move because because I don’t want to extend, I wanted the club to collect a transfer fee for me so that they can look for a high-quality replacement,” said Mbappe, explaining his position. “I announced that early so the club could have a look around. I wanted us to break up on friendly terms,” said the 22-year-old, who is still tied to PSG until the end of the season.
Mbappe respects the PSG position
At the same time, Mbappe also made it clear that he can live with it if the Parisians decide not to sell. “I told them: If you don’t want me to go, I’ll respect it,” said Mbappe.
He also tried to be fair with his early transfer request. “I would not have liked it if someone had said ‘Now he will come with it in the last week of August’. It sounds like I wanted to steal away. I said at the end of July that I wanted to leave,” said the offensive star clear.
