Real Madrid star signing Kylian Mbappe made some pointed statements about his former club Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday, making it clear he was not impressed by the club's management. He also revealed that PSG had threatened him with a year in the tribune if he did not renew his deal, before manager Luis Enrique and Sporting Director Luis Campos intervened on his behalf.
“Excited” and “liberated” are two of the words he used to describe his emotions at having signed for Los Blancos, declaring that PSG had spoken to him “with violence”. It didn't take long for PSG to respond. In a brief statement to AFP, as per AS DiaryPSG condemned his words as “lamentable”, and said that the top scorer in their history had “no class”.
According to reports in France, Mbappe has not been paid by PSG since March, as the French side tries to force a written recognition of an agreement to waive a €80m loyalty bonus that was due to him this season. Of course, if they try to convince Mbappe to give up such a large amount of money, it is a risky strategy.
