The Parisian club is preparing a proposal of almost €180M to try to convince the Frenchman, once and for all, to stay.
The situation
PSG remain confident of renewing Kylian Mbappé . Just two months after Bondy’s talent contract ends, the Parisian team could send him, according to the BBC , one last desperate offer to convince him, once and for all, to renew his contract. This would include a signing bonus of almost 180 million euros, much more than was presumably talked about, in what would be one of the largest payments in history to renew a player. Always according to the prestigious British outlet, the most likely scenario continues to be that of seeing Kylian Mbappé in the Real Madrid shirt, although the player, as he already declared a week ago after the match against Lorient, has not signed anything because they are still missing for clarification “new elements” . The elements that Mbappe talks about would be the main obstacle for which he has not yet signed for the white team and for which PSG is trying to convince him with an astronomical offer never seen in the history of the club.
Image rights, key in the operation
As AS has learned, Kylian Mbappé’s last public appearances were no accident. The striker assured last week that the new parameters or elements were going to be decisive for his final decision. These elements are, without a doubt, the image rights. His lawyer, Delphine Verheyden, specialized in this branch of law, is asking for 100% of the image rights to refuse, among other things, to attend acts that promote, for example, junk food. Brands like Coca Cola or KFC are considered by Mbappé as a setback to serve as an example to children and that is why he wants to control all the acts in which he intervenes, be it from the French Federation or PSG . Sports betting also enters the equation. “On the official shirts of the national team or the teams, who has the right to the image? The FFF, the supplier of the team (Nike) and the player. If we put the player’s name on the shirt, he should receive some financial compensation Next, each of them must decide if they want to keep the money or donate it to amateur football. This is where Kylian wants to intervene in what he generates, “Verheyden assured in an interview with L’equipe just two days after his client had refused to participate in a sponsorship event with the French national team
