While Mbappé leaves for free, PSG's 200 million signing for his replacement
PSG is already planning the 2024/2025 season without the presence of Kylian Mbappé.
These are strange times for Paris Saint-Germain, because despite having Kylian Mbappé in the squad, they no longer have him for the Parisian project, since the forward will leave this summer, presumably to Real Madrid.
Kylian Mbappé ends his contract this summer, and naturally, he will not renew. Therefore, Paris Saint-Germain will not receive a single euro for the departure of the French striker. Despite not receiving money for him, Paris Saint-Germain is preparing its portfolio, since replacing him will not come cheap. At the moment, there is talk that Luis Enrique wants Rafael Leao as the team's future star.
Rafael Leao will not be an easy signing, since the Portuguese has a contract until 2028. In addition, he has a fairly expensive termination clause, because if Paris Saint-Germain, or any other team wants him, they will have to pay 175 million euros by the clause. This is a price that Nasser Al-Khelaifi is willing to pay.
These have been Luis Enrique's words about his forwards, including Kylian Mbappé: "I talk about all my forwards. For a team to function at this level, all forwards are needed, without exception. We have many players who can create imbalances in attack and make a difference. As a coach, I like that. Journalists like to talk about the players who play the most,"
Luis Enrique sends a message after the death of Artur Jorge:
"I was at Real Madrid in 1994, yes, when we faced PSG. I don't remember it very well. I don't have any anecdotes. But we from the club regret, as far as I'm concerned, we regret the loss of Artur Jorge. We wish him the best to his family."
