McDonald's league? After Mbappé's departure, the new millionaire deal in Ligue 1

It is no secret to anyone that Kylian Mbappé will join Real Madrid at the start of next season. The 25-year-old French striker has already announced to Paris Saint-Germain officials that he will not continue in the French capital, and journalists of the likes of Fabrizio Romano have assured that the Russia 2018 World Cup winner is only negotiating with the Merengue squad, so it would be a matter of time before it becomes official.

Prestigious media such as Le Parisien and Diario AS, assure that everything is already agreed between Mbappé, his entourage and Real Madrid, and that it would only be a matter of time and details for the official announcement to be made. In that sense, according to Diario AS, in the event that Paris Saint-Germain is eliminated from the Champions League, the announcement of Mbappé's arrival at Real Madrid could be brought forward and made known even before the end of the current campaign.

PSG's own coach, Luis Enrique, has begun to use Mbappé less and less as he assures that his team must get used to winning without him, as it is a fact that they will not count on his presence next season, but it seems that they are not the only ones who are beginning to glimpse a future without the French star, as Ligue 1 will also have important changes.

It is estimated that with the departure of Kylian Mbappé from French soccer, worldwide audience levels will drop and, to counteract this, Ligue 1 could change its name and have a new sponsor. It is McDonald's, the famous hamburger chain that, according to journalist Daniel Riolo, will become the new sponsor of Ligue 1, which will be renamed "Ligue 1 McDonald's".
