Kylian Mbappé must make a decision about his future in the coming weeks, and Real Madrid is waiting on his decision without exerting too much pressure.
Real Madrid appears calm in the Mbappé affair. Too calm to be honest? According to L’Equipe, Real Madrid is adopting a waiting stance, believing that Mbappé has all the necessary information at his disposal.
The Merengue club is no longer willing to make additional efforts, and it is now up to Kylian Mbappé to initiate the process. According to L’Equipe, several sources within the Madrid club have denied the January 15 ultimatum, which has now expired. “It would be suicidal when we now have all the freedom and the end of the season to negotiate and come to an agreement with him,” explains one source to L’Equipe.
Kylian Mbappé has reportedly had the offer from Real Madrid for a very long time. It is now his turn to make a decision. However, Real Madrid would like to be informed very quickly, and the club’s leaders “want written guarantees from his side,” reports L’Equipe.
A decision from Kylian Mbappé could come just before the start of the Champions League round of 16 (from mid-February to mid-March). But Real Madrid is making it clear that this is the last time a contract will be offered to Mbappé. After this, the opportunity will not come around again. “Some executives are conveying the message that Mbappé is no longer an absolute necessity in the eyes of the Madrid board, as was the case in spring 2022 when Real was willing to make colossal financial efforts and meet all the star’s demands,” concludes the sports newspaper.
