The date of Mbappé’s formalization is known, Spain puts monstrous pressure on Barça

The end of the Mbappé soap opera is approaching

Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid, it’s confirmed. Well almost. Like the placard The Team in today’s edition, it is the “home stretch”. If the newspaper Marca assured that the contract was signed, the French newspaper clarified this Wednesday that nothing has been done yet, but negotiations between Mbappé and Real Madrid are well underway. The final details revolve around the image rights that the French striker wants to his advantage. Since the era of the Galactics and David Beckham, Casa Blanca has established a 50-50 sharing of rights. Mbappé wants more, even though his salary will be significantly lower than what he receives at PSG. The question now is when all this will be official. Well the Daily Express explains that it is understood that the formalization of this historic transfer will only be confirmed when it is impossible for PSG and Real to meet in the Champions League. The probability that the two teams will cross paths exists and moreover the latter are rather well on their way to reaching the quarter-final stage.

Barça under pressure

If Italy leads by point against Spain after Inter’s victory against Atlético de Madrid (1-0), FC Barcelona has the opportunity to put the ball back in the center. Because this evening, it is the turn of Naples and Barça to face each other. And the newspaper Sport posted a clear message this morning on its front page: “Today, there are no excuses”, we can read. Obviously the Catalan press is behind his team like the Mundo Deportivo who gives encouragement to Xavi’s men, but the message is this for the Blaugranas, it’s all for the Champions League and nothing else! Dumped in the league, the Catalans now make the Big Ears Cup the ultimate objective of the season.

Haaland in savior mode

Manchester City and Brentford faced each other yesterday in a late match of the 18th day of the Premier League. The Cityzens took their time but ended up overcoming the Bees thanks to Erling Haaland, with a small victory with a score of 1-0. “Eyes are on the prize”post it Daily Mail this Wednesday morning. Without De Bruyne, Pep Guardiola’s men were sorely lacking in creativity. It was on a twist of fate and a slip from the opponent that the Norwegian cyborg delivered his own in the last 20 minutes. A goal which still does a lot of good for Haaland, which can generally be found on the front pages of all the English tabloids, as you can see on the Manchester Evening News or even the Daily Star. Thanks to this success, Manchester City passes Arsenal and returns to a small unit of leader Liverpool. The fight for the title promises to be fierce until the end!
