The situation of French star Kylian Mbappé at Paris Saint-Germain changed overnight in recent weeks after he announced his intention to leave the club during the upcoming summer transfer window. Despite wanting to exit quietly, Mbappé has not enjoyed his time recently at Paris Saint-Germain since he informed them of his desire to leave the "Parc des Princes" on February 13.
Spanish head coach Luis Enrique excluded Mbappé from regularly participating in recent matches in Ligue 1 after it became clear that he did not wish to continue next season, which greatly angered the player. The Spanish newspaper "Marca" reported that the treatment Mbappé is currently receiving from PSG’s management did not surprise him at all, as he anticipated this after informing them that he would not renew his contract with the league leaders.
The paper added that for this reason, when the French star signed a five-season contract with Real Madrid in the first week of February, the "merengue" officials agreed with Mbappé and his entourage to postpone the announcement of the transfer as long as there was a possibility of a clash between the Spanish club and the French club in the Champions League, which could only happen if both teams reached the final in London.
Furthermore, the newspaper indicated that acknowledging the delicate situation Mbappé would face in Paris after telling his club he would not continue, Real Madrid gave him the green light to choose the ideal time to announce his joining the Spanish league leaders.
It explained that if Real Madrid and PSG do not meet in the Champions League this season, it is likely that the announcement of Mbappé's move to "merengue" will be made officially during the final round of Ligue 1 if the Paris team maintains its lead and secures the title.
It concluded that the official date for presenting the French goal scorer as a new player for Real Madrid will be either before or after the Taylor Swift concerts at the "Santiago Bernabéu" stadium on May 29 and 30, to take advantage of the large audience presence.
