In recent days, Real Madrid Club has made a very clear move about not having any offers for Kylian Mbappe in the last summer transfer window. This information makes many other big teams open their doors to welcome the French superstar. Everyone knows that Mbappe always shows his affection for Real Madrid, so it will be difficult if Los Blancos are still interested in this player.
The teams said to be pursuing Mbappe most closely include Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Man United. Notably, coach Thomas Tuchel, when asked about the possibility of Bayern Munich recruiting Mbappe, joked: “If Kylian wants to come, I will pick him up on my bike!”
Furthermore, according to a trusted source of the German club, the Bayern Munich Board of Directors has gradually discussed this issue. Even the two former leaders of Die Roten, Uli Hoeness and Karl Heinz Rummenigge, are also big fans of the 2018 World Cup champion and once said: “I will buy Mbappe immediately, this player is great!”
Although the team is famous for being cautious in spending money to buy players, if they are determined to pursue any serious deal, the possibility of it happening is very high. This summer, the Allianz Arena team was very patient in the Harry Kane deal and then received sweet results when Tottenham had to release him.
This is also entirely possible if Mbappe is a target that Bayern Munich seriously pursues. Even the French player’s contract with PSG will expire next summer will be even more beneficial when the German team does not spend any money to recruit him.
However, the biggest barrier will come from Mbappe’s salary. Bayern Munich wants to maintain the team’s salary budget at less than 25 million Euros/year, while Mbappe’s salary per year is nearly 3 times that number (72 million Euros). This means that Mbappe will have to accept a very deep salary cut to be able to join the Allianz Arena team.
