Inevitably, the media projection of Mauricio Pochettino did not go unnoticed on the other side of the Pyrenees.
Accustomed to turning on the warm water tap as soon as he comes across a microphone, the PSG coach let go on Thursday, estimating "100%" the chances of seeing him continue in Paris next season, in the company of by Kylian Mbappe.
It's not that they don't like the Argentinian technician, but the Spanish media focused on the second part of his statement.
The website of the Cuatro TV channel thus relies on statements by Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, master of the transfer window, to explain that Real Madrid is waiting for the continuation of events.
All because the Merengue would have already communicated a detailed contract down to the color of the towels to the French world champion.
Finally, the Iberian site nevertheless specifies that the questions of image rights and jersey sales, traditional red lines for Real, remain to be negotiated... And that "the only obstacle" between Mbappé and the Bernabeu is constituted by “Qatar money”.
What a straw, as the emirate has already proven that it could add a few zeros to a check without worrying too much about its end of the month.
Credibility:
1.5%, with a good lawyer.
Mbappé would have his contract in hand, but there would remain essential provisions to be negotiated and Qatar's money could change everything….
To plagiarize a French humorist from the turn of the millennium, this article, “it was to say nothing at all”.
Mbappometer:
He hasn't flinched since the day before.
Kyky is always halfway between Paris and Madrid, either as the crow flies above the Toulouse Stadium, or close to it.
