Laurent Perrin, journalist at Le Parisien, discusses the behind-the-scenes of Kylian Mbappé’s departure. His brother Ethan’s situation particularly affected him.
Kylian Mbappé is leaving PSG, and with him goes the entire Mbappé clan. No leniency for Ethan, who had hoped to stay. The young Mbappé brother is not being extended by PSG, a form of retaliation after Kylian’s “betrayal.”
Le Parisien journalist Laurent Perrin confirms that Ethan Mbappé dreamed of signing his first professional contract with Paris. “This season has shown that Mbappé is human. Everything that happened behind the scenes had consequences. I think what affected him the most was how his little brother Ethan was treated. He was supposed to sign professionally with PSG; it was his dream,” Perrin said during a chat session.
“But the management decided not to offer him anything after learning that Kylian was leaving Paris. Kylian felt responsible for this situation, and it deeply affected him. Just because he’s a millionaire doesn’t mean everything rolls off him,” adds Laurent Perrin .
