French President Macron wanted to persuade football player Kylian Mbappe to stay at PSG
French President Emmanuel Macron wanted to persuade striker Kylian Mbappe to stay at PSG. RMC Sport became aware of the politician’s influence on the footballer’s contract.
According to the source, a Parisian fan asked Macron if the striker would remain in the French championship. “I have no sensational news, but I will try to achieve this,” the president replied.
On June 12, it became known to L’Equipe that Mbappe had informed the club’s management that he was refusing to renew his contract until 2025. It was noted that the Parisians will try to sell the player in the summer of 2023 so that he does not leave as a free agent.
Mbappé has been playing for the Parisians since 2018. The striker’s current agreement with the team runs until 2024 with the option of a one-season extension. In the spring of 2022, he could become a Real Madrid player, but extended his contract with PSG. Then Macron said that he spoke with Mbappe and advised him to stay in France.
