“This Mbappe is not my Mbappe, they confused him”: Florentino Pérez

Florentino Perezpresident of Real Madridrevealed everything that happened in the negotiation with Kylian Mbappewhich fifteen days before he makes a decision and chooses for his continuity in the PSG he changed his demeanor, saying that “the pressure was affecting him”, and making it clear that “no player is above the club”.

“He did not betray me, Mbappe conveyed to everyone his wish to play for Real Madrid, it was his dream as he stated. We wanted to do it in August and they did not allow him. They did not accept the offer, they didn’t want to sell him. he told the club he wanted to go but you had to wait a year, he always said his dream was to come just two weeks before he changed the situation because of the political pressure he had and the economic 1. He had a blockage and came out on the easier side,” he said in The beach bar.

Florentino Pérez and the CEO Jose Angel Sanchez they were in constant contact with Mbappé, but noticed a suspicious change in his attitude. “He told us he wanted to come and we saw that he had changed.”

“An important detail was when he did not want to sponsor his teammates. Football is a collective sport, everyone is on an equal footing, there is no one else. They had offered him to become the team leader and the management of the club. I saw that it was not the Mbappe I wanted to bring. He had to change his dream,” he admitted.

“He is very young and the pressure affects him more. The President of the Republic has called him to ask him not to leave. It is not normal. It makes no sense because there are more clubs. He will want him to do well has , Zidane and Benzema did it in Real Madrid and they are great for the president to be proud of. The mayor called him and they offered him crazy stuff in Qatar that caused him to block himself and a lot of influence on him had,” he added.

PSG’s latest proposals have changed Mbappe’s decision, said Florentino Perez, who discovered things about the player that he didn’t like. “At Real Madrid, nobody is above the club. He is a great footballer, but football is a team sport and we have values ​​and principles that we do not want to change.”

“I liked him, he tried his best, but the pressure changed the circumstances. At 23 it’s not easy to have the necessary peace of mind. His mother wanted him to come to Real Madrid because it was his dream was like a little boy. They confessed. They tell us she was sad, everything was on schedule and circumstances changed. She made a different decision and we have to respect that. She didn’t come because she didn’t want to, ” she said.

A key point awaiting clarification was the lack of a clause that would have allowed Real Madrid to receive an economic sum as a fine for the French striker’s change of mind.

“It cannot be,” said Florentino Perez. “There is a rule and you have to go to the club to report that you are negotiating with another club. It would have been a major disturbance to say you were negotiating with Real Madrid. The normal course of action was to waiting for the season to be over.” It would have been extra pressure and it wouldn’t have been done for not harming Mbappe,” he clarified.

“The madridistas were a little disappointed, but the Mbappe to come is not the one from the end. If that’s the case, it’s better that he stays with PSG. The one I knew was the one from the dream. Now I have a dream don’t like to see him in white anymore because this Mbappe is not my Mbappe They confused him I wish him the best there I have nothing against him I believed the dream but in all history from Real Madrid, there is no player above the club. No, we don’t make exceptions,” he said.

Real Madrid’s top manager ruled out that negotiations with Mbappe would not hurt him not to fight for Haaland’s arrival. “It had nothing to do with it. We have the best striker in the world, that’s Benzema and he’s incompatible with a great player like Haaland at the moment. We weren’t going to bring him in to sit on the bench. sit down.”
