Mbappe’s future in Paris has been up in the air for a while now. He wanted to make a move to Real Madrid last summer, but PSG turned down all of Los Blancos’ advances, forcing the player to stay, according to ESPN. However, with his contract running out at the end of the season, the club have no say in the player’s decision, meaning he is free to join any club.
While Madrid remain the frontrunner (via Marca), Mbappe has recently claimed that “there are new elements” that he must consider before making the final decision. Petit has speculated that maybe “a third club” (besides Paris Saint-Germain and Madrid) is chasing his signature.
Speaking to Genting Casino (via Express), the 1998 World Cup winner said:
The former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder then urged Manchester United to throw their hat in the ring for the 23-year-old French superstar, saying:
Mbappe has easily been Paris’ best performer this season across competitions. He has scored 28 goals and provided 20 assists in 38 appearances, with 17 goals and 13 assists coming in Ligue 1 alone.
Manchester United are not a realistic destination for PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe
Kylian Mbappe is one of the best players in the world right now. He is lethal, charismatic, and is a natural leader on the pitch. Unless he renews his contract, the Frenchman’s next destination is likely to be a club that is capable of fighting on all fronts. Manchester United, unfortunately, are a far cry from it at the moment.
Not only are they set to endure their fifth consecutive trophyless season, but they also don’t have a clear project. They are yet to employ a permanent manager, are not guaranteed to be in the Champions League next term, and need a lot of reinforcements.
A Ballon d’Or contender like Mbappe is unlikely to consider Manchester United’s offers, if not purely for monetary purposes.
