The ‘Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid’ soap opera is arguably at the center of all soccer circles. La Liga President Javier Tebas believes Madrid has a ’55-60%’ chance of landing the Frenchman. On the other hand, PSG President Nasser Al Khelaifi stressed that the Ligue 1 giants and Mbappe have not yet decided. Well, soccer fans and pundits having a say in this saga is no surprise. In a surprising turn, Parisian rapper Booba has not-so-subtly dragged dirt on Mbappe’s potential Madrid switch. The rapper mocked the 25-year-old, saying he should ‘learn life with Vinicius‘ at Real.

Booba’s feud with Kylian Mbappe started when he took shots at the latter in the lyrics of a recently released track. Before the goalscorer could respond to the criticism, the rapper fired his second shot.

In Abidal, Booba tore Kylian Mbappe to shreds with a single line. “They are overrated like Kylian,” Booba sang in his portion in Abidal. Le10 Sport recently headlined that Booba clashed with Mbappe again. In response to that news piece, Booba wrote on X, “It’s not a clash you’re overrated you’re useless you’re a tool of the system zero LDC zero stance (like most) go to Réal to learn life with Vinicius good luck.” (translated by DeepL). It is yet to be learned if Booba mocked Mbappe for keeping a tight lip about his future by saying ‘zero stance.’

Anyhow, this is not the first time the 47-year-old rapper has thrown jibes at the 2018 World Champion. When France lost to Argentina in the 2022 WC final, Booba mocked the striker, saying he lost because he didn’t sing the rapper’s songs! With the musician’s latest critique, the Mbappe-Booba saga will go on like the Mbappe-Madrid saga. Speaking of his Los Blancos move, he yet again faced flak for reportedly making 3 mammoth transfer demands.

As per CadenaSER, the French striker has 3 demands from Los Blancos, if they want his signature. Firstly, he has asked for a salary of $53 million per year. This will be double the salary of Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr. Then he wants a signing-on bonus that is worth more than $106 million. As a final demand, Kylian Mbappe has asked the Spanish side for a share of his image rights.

Hearing these demands from the 25-year-old, Spanish journalist Tomas Roncero said, “Whatever he does, he is already the most insufferable player in Real Madrid’s history. It’s really tedious.” The journalist also added that the France captain should learn that money is not the most important thing in the world.

One take at a time

My journey as a sports aficionado was not colored by soccer initially. The 2006 FIFA World Cup, however, changed me, as I fell in love with the beautiful game. From cheering on Real Madrid to channeling an inner analyst with my pals during every other World Cup and kicking the ball timelessly, soccer is now a therapy for me with boundless conversations.
