With our correspondent in Madrid,

It takes a lot of class to play Real, ironically

Marca

, or it is he who loses according to

As,

another online sports news site.

Suffice to say that

Kylian Mbappé's decision to continue at PSG

did not go through the Madrid press at all.

For Miguel, a father in his fifties, the Frenchman made the wrong choice.

“ 

He is the loser in the story.

He broke his word and that was it.

We can't do anything else.

Mbappé needs Real Madrid… but if he doesn't want to come, he doesn't come.

There's nothing more we can do

..."

Disappointment, betrayal, anger… fans and journalists alike, the Spaniards had no words strong enough to qualify what is considered here as a volte-face.

For Javier, 16, the pill is hard to swallow.

"

 Everything seemed to be taken for granted.

We had the impression that he was considering coming here, and it seemed like a good option because it assures you of a team capable of winning the Champions League at least because PSG, despite all the money they puts, can't win it.

I won't say I'm angry… but I'm disappointed!

»

It's a hell of a cold shower for Real.

It remains to be seen whether the club will continue to dream of bringing in the Frenchman.

Be that as it may, his love rating has dropped considerably on this side of the Pyrenees...

Lo que va a hacer el PSG renovando a Mbappé con grandes cantidades de dinero (a saber dónde y cómo las paga) despues de dar pérdidas por 700M€ en las últimas temporadas y tener mas 600M€ de masa salary, es un INSULTO al fútbol.

Al-Khelafi is a peligroso as the Superliga.
