Neymar and Mauricio Pochettino suffer: the reason why Kylian Mbappé would leave PSG

Paris Saint-Germain is undergoing difficult times in Ligue 1, and the club will have to take critical decisions in any moment. One of those might be one of the toughest in their history: to get rid of Kylian Mbappé. Yes, the French star could be forced to move from the team to a new destination. Why? Let’s see.

It’s very known the absolutely wealthy condition of the club, owned by investors who made possible to sign players like Mbappé but also high-earning names like Edinson Cavani (now at Manchester United), Angel Di María, Julian Draxler, or Neymar himself, who represented soccer’s highest transfer ever.

The Brazilian was bought for €222 million, which equals to $268 million. Now, Mbappé could well be the next one. Or not so. The club has undergone some debts, given the coronavirus pandemic has severely harmed PSG’s finances. The fact of playing behind closed doors or not playing at all for almost a whole year generated loss for over $130 million.

Julian Draxler, Juan Bernat and Angel Di María will all become free agents in June, so the club could be released from their contracts. Given Mbappé will be in the same condition by June 2022, it will be necessary to sell him in the upcoming transfer market, according to France’s top sports publication L’Equipe.
