PSG’s Post-Mbappé Plan Unveiled: Three High-Caliber Players Targeted

In the unfolding saga surrounding Kylian Mbappé’s potential move to Real Madrid, transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano sheds light on PSG’s contingency plan.

While nothing is finalized with Real Madrid, there’s a gradual approach towards an agreement, with Mbappé reportedly open to a reduced salary in Madrid.

According to Romano, « Real Madrid continues to move forward confidently with an agreement with Kylian Mbappé – but nothing has been signed yet. A formal decision from the player is expected soon. President Nasser Al-Khelaifi and PSG have not received any formal communication, a crucial step in the pact with Mbappé. »

Contrary to the Parisian claims over the weekend, the departure is not a definite 100%, but indications suggest a growing likelihood. Romano notes, « Total confidence from Real Madrid has also been shared in the locker room. »

Three Important Players, But No Superstars

However, securing Mbappé may require financial compromises, as he might agree to a salary « significantly lower than that of 2022. » Romano also reveals PSG’s backup plan to replace Mbappé, stating, « PSG has already prepared its contingency plan in case Mbappé decides to leave. » The names Rafael Leão and Victor Osimhen are notably circulating in the media on Monday.

In addition, PSG aims for a comprehensive squad overhaul, planning to recruit a high-caliber central defender, a crucial midfield presence, and a prominent striker to fill Mbappé’s void. Speculations surround potential targets like Yoro, Guimaraes, and Leao, leaving room for anticipation and speculation.
