n a jaw-dropping turn of events, Manchester United has set its sights on acquiring superstar striker Kylian Mbappe, triggering what could become a record-breaking transfer deal in world football. The Sun Sports recently shared a headline that sent shockwaves through the footballing world, speculating that Manchester United is poised to engage in an extraordinary bidding war for Mbappe’s services. The report suggests that the club is prepared to make an astronomical offer, potentially shattering the existing world transfer record. These developments come amidst growing indications that the Qatari owners of PSG may be willing to part ways with the club.
The French forward Kylian Mbappe has sent tremors through the footballing giants of France by submitting a letter to PSG’s management, declaring his refusal to activate the one-year contract extension clause. This decision implies that Mbappe will become a free agent in the summer of 2024.
Mbappe’s current contract with PSG is valued at £900,000 per week and expires in June 2024. PSG is determined not to lose Mbappe without compensation, which means a blockbuster transfer deal could materialize this summer.
Real Madrid has long been considered a potential destination for Kylian Mbappe, especially since Carlo Ancelotti missed the opportunity to sign him in 2022. However, recent reports from Spain suggest that Manchester United could be a strong contender for his signature.
El Chiringuito TV, a prominent Spanish channel, has claimed that the Qatari owners of PSG have lost interest in the project at the French club. They believe that PSG’s project has reached its conclusion following the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
If the Qatari party successfully takes over Manchester United, the Red Devils will make Kylian Mbappe their top priority, plotting to lure him to Old Trafford with an unprecedented offer. The astonishing proposal is rumored to be worth a staggering £342 million per year, eclipsing Mbappe’s current salary of £80 million at PSG.
This means that Manchester United would be offering Kylian Mbappe a total salary of £640 million, equivalent to £12.3 million per week. To put this into perspective, Cristiano Ronaldo earns £3.3 million per week at Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr.
With Qatar losing interest in PSG, it appears that they are willing to facilitate Mbappe’s move to Manchester United if they successfully acquire the Red Devils. Edu Aguirre, a reliable source, revealed to Sun Sports: “I have spoken to individuals close to the Qatari owners at PSG. It is evident that PSG is gradually being forgotten by Qatar. Qatar is shifting focus away from the PSG project.”
Some time ago, Qatar lost trust in the PSG project. According to Qatar, the “lifespan” of PSG will end after the 2022 World Cup. They have now informed me that PSG, representing Qatar, will not go to great lengths to retain Kylian Mbappe. In their eyes, it is unnecessary to keep Mbappe at PSG.
Why? Because of their plans. They are, unofficially, but it will happen, heading towards the Premier League. Qatar is on the verge of entering Manchester United. They want to replicate the model of the United Arab Emirates and Manchester City. The investment that Qatar is pouring into Manchester United is significant.
