In great difficulty to keep Kylian Mbappé, the PSG is necessarily eager to try everything to convince his attacker to continue the adventure.
It will be very complicated because Real Madrid are convinced that the dream of the French international will be stronger than anything, and therefore the Parisian leaders have absolutely no chance. On the side of Paris SG, the leitmotif is known: as long as there is hope, we will have to try everything to make Mbappé doubt. This goes from sporting guarantees, with a workforce to be partly rebuilt around players capable of further raising the level of PSG. Guarantees also in terms of standing, with the assurance for Mbappé that he will be the headliner of this Paris centered on the one who is largely the best player this season. But also financial insurance. PSG can align the millions and the proposals made in recent weeks allow Mbappé to know how much the Emir of Qatar wants to see him stay in Paris. But there are also other levers, and in particular one that made the buzz this week.
The sponsors that Mbappé does not like
Image rights, targeted sponsors and tolerance of the FFF… Mbappé, the underside of a landmark boycott

Indeed, this Tuesday, Kylian Mbappé refused to take part in the operations of the sponsors of the France team. The lawyer for the French international had been talking for some time with the federation to warn regarding this international charter which dates from 2010, and which does not please everyone. Particularly with regard to image rights, since as a star player of the France team, Mbappé was asked by all the partners to be used during campaigns. And there are certain sports betting companies, or companies that can cause problems for children (soft drink, fast food), which are not suitable for the personal battles that Kylian Mbappé leads. The former Monegasque pays associations for the protection or support of children for all of his image rights since his professional debut. On his arrival at PSG, he was in any case unable to negotiate this famous image right to his advantage, unlike a Lionel Messi who has total management of it, for example. This allows the Argentinian, who does not run following contracts, to be able to freely refuse, including some PSG sponsors, if it does not suit him.
PSG ready to give him everything
This is what Kylian Mbappé is looking for with the France team, but what Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is also ready to give him. This Thursday, Le Parisien thus confirms that the PSG does not oppose the request of its number 7 to fully manage its image rights. A novelty that allows to weigh a little more in the efforts that PSG makes to seduce its attacker. This would thus ensure a huge additional sum directly in the income of Kylian Mbappé, who has planned to continue to pay these amounts to associations of his choice. Leaves to then freely make its choices not to appear with sponsors who do not correspond to its line of conduct.
