Mbappé Sends a Message to Al-Khelaïfi and PSG: 'If We Face Each Other in Champions League...'

The Bondy striker definitively closes a debate that has quickly arisen around him

One of the Stars of This Real Madrid Is Kylian Mbappé. The entity presided over by Florentino Pérez, as well as its followers, waited patiently for seven years until the arrival of the French footballer became a reality in the summer of 2024. That circumstance, however, still hasn't delivered the football performance many expected.

Because Real Madrid, with the addition of Kylian Mbappé, seemed like an almost unstoppable team. Reality has shown that the white club has some problems when it comes to building their game, difficulties that have considerably affected the performance of their big names. Be that as it may, the merengue entity is already in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Real Madrid's victory against Atlético de Madrid in the round of 16 was possible thanks to Kylian Mbappé. While it's true that the white '9' didn't have his best match, Real Madrid was in that knockout round thanks to his excellent performance against Manchester City. His performance in the round of 32 represents, to date, perhaps his best matches as a white footballer.

Another Team That Has Slowly Advanced to the Quarter-Finals Is PSG. Not many seemed to believe in the project led by Luis Enrique since the departure of the now Madrid '9' due to the loss of one of the best in the world. But the Parisian team is leading Ligue 1 and overcame a tough knockout against Liverpool, 'threatening' to reach Munich.

Expected Reaction

If Real Madrid continues their advance in the Champions League by surpassing Arsenal in the quarter-finals, they could meet PSG in the final to be held in Germany. One of the focuses of that tense match would be Kylian Mbappé, who is clear about his position regarding his former directors. "Of course, I would shake Nasser's hand if we face PSG in the Champions League," says the now Madrid forward.

Kylian Mbappé confesses that "I'm not one to only focus on the negative" and "I know how to appreciate what people give me in life, both professionally and personally". These words that the French footballer has left in an interview with Le Parisien are a message to the rouge et bleu team more important than it seems.

Because the Bondy striker has let go of all the bad moments experienced in Paris, including the tense relationship he had with Nasser Al-Khelaïfi in his last two summers. Those experiences have been forgotten, and Kylian Mbappé wouldn't have a problem courteously greeting the president of the team that definitively installed him in the elite of world football.

Kylian Mbappé's Reaction Regarding a Possible Encounter with PSG Was Highly Anticipated. The backstory of the now merengue striker with the French team has led to many comments over the past five summers, but the Madrid '9' assures that he won't be reluctant to greet.
