Kylian Mbappé will reportedly be heading to Real Madrid this summer when his contract expires in June. The Frenchman will likely be signing with the Spanish giants, but the question is whether someone will need to leave to balance the financial books.
ESPN FC pundit Gemma Soler has suggested that a player could be up for sale to balance the financial implications of acquiring Mbappé. Soler mentioned Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo as potential candidates, pointing out that President Florentino Pérez has a history of selling key players when making significant transfers.
MARCA’s José Félix Díaz revealed the latest regarding Mbappé and Real Madrid. He notes that the dressing room will welcome him with open arms but cautions whether those good times will continue once players lose minutes.
“I ask the circles around the players affected by Mbappé’s arrival at Real Madrid, and everyone is going to welcome him with open arms,” Díaz said on the Twitch of Rubén Martín (h/t Bernabeu Digital). “Besides, he has a good relationship with them: Rodrygo, Vinicius, supposedly even Bellingham…
“But we have to see how, later on, when the Frenchman arrives and they realize he, figuratively speaking, takes away their bread, we’ll see how the players react and how they adapt.”
The upcoming months promise to be intriguing to see what transpires. Is there a possibility of either Vinicius Junior or Rodrygo making a move?
