The bomb triggered by Mbappé this weekend sends a few more explosions on the football planet. Since announcing his wish to stay, tongues have been loosened. And the information is flowing.
The player notably admitted that a third club had entered the dance to recruit him: Liverpool. During the season, Jurgen Klopp had notably had a sentence in relation to a possible transfer. “Of course we are interested in Kylian Mbappé, we are not blind”. he blurted out. However, the German coach was aware of leaving with several wars behind. “We cannot be part of this battle for his recruitment. There are other clubs involved and that’s fine. He’s a great player.”
In an interview with The Telegraph, the Bondy Rocket was a little more vocal regarding it. “We talked a little, but not too much. We talked a little”he began timidly. “I’m honest. I spoke to Liverpool because red is my mum’s favorite color and my mum loves Liverpool. Why? I don’t know, ask her. We met them a few years ago when I was at Monaco, it’s a great club. But in the end, it was between Real Madrid and PSG.”
Benzema – Mbappé, betrayal?
After learning regarding the extension of number 7 in Paris, Karim Benzema obviously had it bad. In an Instagram story, he posted an enigmatic photo of Tupac with actor Stephen Baldwin in the foreground and rapper General Steele in the background. For some, this second is considered one of the traitors of Tupac who will be murdered in his car in 1996.
An image that set fire to social networks and in the press. Of course, an overinterpretation is not a good adviser. But this photo challenges. Could there be water in the gas between the two men? “We did not exchange with Karim”told KM7 for Le Parisien. “I know everyone was talking regarding Karim and Kylian, Kylian and Karim… But in the selection, we only talked regarding the evening meal. I didn’t want to force this thing. When we see each other, we’ll discuss it. I I will explain this choice to him.”
On RMC Sport, the entourage of Karim Benzema wanted to deny the rumors regarding a possible link between the choice of Mbappé and this story. Still for Le Parisien, the one who is linked to the Ile-de-France club until 2025 returned to this episode. “I saw that almost all Real Madrid players had taken it out. You don’t have to have done Saint-Cyr to understand that it comes from higher up, right?”
