The quest for acquiring the best players is a perpetual task for top clubs. After a tense period for two summer transfer windows, the next home of Kylian Mbappe still remains under question. And now, even experts are frustrated. After a long time, however, the Paris Saint-Germain player opened up about what’s on his plate next. But his statements baffled one pundit, who blamed him for ‘flirting’ around.

It was in 2021 that Kylian Mbappe first rejected Florentino Perez’s humongous offer of $231 million. Even though it was in the club’s hands during that time, the player’s rejection in 2022 started the ‘headache’ for both parties. According to an expert though, it is Mbappe who needs to come out clear on the matter.

Kylian Mbappe’s recent affirmations about his future has given many comfort. But according to a former Venezuelan player, Mbappe’s words meant nothing, labelling it as an attempt to beat around the bush. Ale Moreno, talking to ESPN FC, said, “Why are we still talking about this because he has flirted with them? With them (someone lese), Real Madrid, am I coming, am I not coming? So, we’re going to talk about it shamefully. We’re going to talk about it.”

Moreno takes a dig at Mbappe’s statement, which claimed that his decision about his future is not a priority at the moment. Mbappe declined Real Madrid’s second offer in 2022 after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired. The perseverance of Nasser Al-Khelaifi managed to keep the icon, with the team signing a 2-year extension.

But Mbappe claimed that no decision has been made yet. In a recent interview, he proclaimed, “I haven’t made up my mind yet. I haven’t made a choice. With the agreement I made with the President this summer, whatever my decision, we managed to protect all parties and preserve the club’s serenity for the challenges ahead, which remains the most important thing. So, we’ll say it’s secondary.”

The biggest concern for Paris Saint-Germain last year was the star’s contract extension. With only one year left at the time, PSG were reluctant to let Mbappe go as a free agent. But now that the time is approaching, the star may have comforted them that even if he leaves PSG, it would be a fair deal for them.

Growing up in a sporting background, I found a passion for soccer through the remarkable 2002 World Cup-winning Brazilian football team. Watching the Premier League where Thierry Henry-starring ‘Invincible’ Gunners and Sir Alex Ferguson’s glorious Manchester United had ruled, I had my heart set on Arsenal. However, Ronaldo Nazario, Rivaldo, and Ronaldinho are my favorite players and Lionel Messi is the GOAT.
