Throughout the weekend, there was still talk of the future of Kylian Mbappé. Indeed, several media in France as elsewhere in Europe have come to confirm our exclusive information published on January 7 on the future of the Bondynois, who will join Real Madrid at the end of the season, at the end of his contract with PSG. And inevitably, a replacement will have to be found. Quality, if possible, since the star of the Blues will leave a huge void in the Ile-de-France squad.
Many names have already appeared everywhere in the press, like Victor Osimhen (Naples), Rafael Leão (AC Milan) or even Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), suggesting a significant investment that could approach of a 9-figure sum this summer. But according to information revealed by the newspaper The Parisian this Monday, Paris Saint-Germain may not do such crazy things…
No star to replace Mbappé
And for good reason, the newspaper explains that the Ile-de-France club wants to continue building a squad made up of young talents and should not recruit a big star to replace the Parisian number 7. The management of the capital club made the decision not to bring in a major player to cover the departure of the former Monegasque. Of course, everyone is free to define what a big star is, but this suggests that the capital club will focus more on profiles similar to those of Bradley Barcola or Kang-In Lee rather than those mentioned higher, or to others like Erling Haaland.
Which player could fit this profile? Well the media highlights the name of Xavi Simons, a player who has the advantage of already belonging to Paris Saint-Germain, and who is currently on loan to Leipzig. The Dutchman is a hit and has 7 goals and 9 assists in 27 matches in all competitions, and, logically, the Bundesliga team wants to keep him. The media indicates that Simons has not yet decided what his future will look like, but he will make his choice without taking into account what Mbappé will do. There is no doubt that other names will come out in the coming weeks…
