PSG plot momentous transfer to outdo Messi deal after Mbappe realisation

Team Talk

PSG are prepared to sanction a momentous deal that would create a truly historic front-line after a realisation over Kylian Mbappe’s future began to set in, per a report.

The greatest beneficiaries of Barcelona’s financial woes have so far turned out to be PSG. With the Spanish giants in turmoil, a contract to keep global icon Lionel Messi at the Camp Nou could not be ratified.

Financing major deals is not something PSG are currently struggling with. And as such, the Qatari-backed club quickly pulled off a major coup when bringing Messi to Ligue 1.

A forward line consisting of Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe is truly one to behold. However, fans may only get to see that trio play together for a single season.

Mbappe has just 12 months remaining on his current deal and has shown no signs of being willing to extend his stay.

Real Madrid have been frequently touted as his next destination. They too are struggling financially, but the absence of a transfer fee next summer will help smoothen the process.

Now, per the Daily Mail (citing Spanish outlet AS), it is beginning to dawn on PSG that Mbappe’s future lays away from Paris.

While it’s acknowledged they are ‘unwilling’ to sanction a sale this summer, they now ‘believe’ he will not sign a new deal.

Should Mbappe depart, PSG will reportedly turn their attention to landing Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese legend, 36, will also be a free agent when his contract at Juventus expires next summer…
