Zapping Our Mondial TOP 10: The most profitable transfers in history
Leonardo is not one to have his tongue in his pocket. So when he speaks calmly, as is the case today with the daily the team, these words have a certain weight. In a long interview granted to the newspaper, the Brazilian sporting director takes the time to return with patience to the case of Kylian Mbappé, his striker who is coming to the end of his contract in June and who has still not found an agreement for to prolong. Despite the advances of Real Madrid, the boss of the sportsman in Paris wants the player positive, denying first of all the famous “super-offer” of 100 million salaries over two years.
“We want to put him in the best conditions so that he becomes the best player possible”
“It’s not true. We have not sent a specific offer. There is an important element: I think the last thing we will put on this contract will be the amount. We want to put in the best conditions so that he becomes the best possible player”, he indicates before pressing on the salary side: “Hardly ever (talking regarding the future salary). Because that’s not what “It’s a question. Kylian has such great value that I think he’s quiet regarding it. It’s secondary. I think to put the amount, it will take two minutes at the end.”
“Something is created”
Therefollowing, he details what his player needs to extend: “It’s a question of feeling. The French player, when he starts, has the objective of playing abroad. This n It’s no coincidence that in the world champion team in 1998, you have a majority of players who play abroad. Same in 2018, Kylian was the only one of the eleven type who played in France. Pogba and Griezmann do not have never played in L1, Zidane made his career more abroad than in France. But at the time, there was not a club of the size of PSG. We are not sellers, it changes the mind. Now I think Kylian really has a great reflection. The feeling that there was on Saturday at the stadium is magnificent. Something is being created, not just for him. I’m not here to be smooth but other clubs don’t have ultras like that. It can weigh. It’s a feeling, made up of an accumulation of little things. It’s up to us to understand it and know what it needs at each th moment. When we arrive at a team with perhaps the best player in history (Messi), Neymar and him, we can say to ourselves: who is first, second, etc. ? However, there is a harmony, a respect between them and that is also built.
“I don’t think he will judge on the result once morest Real”
Finally, he comes back to the chances that PSG have to extend it: “I can’t say, but we have possibilities. As long as there is no signature, we will try everything, we will do everything for the keep. I don’t think he will judge on the result once morest Real. We have a generation coming up, we have young people in training, we want to make other investments. What has been done by Qatar for ten years has brought PSG among the greats. Today, the club is a reality. It is loved, admired, respected.”
