“This Mbappe is not my Mbappe” everything Florentino Perez said about Kylian Mbappe’s decision to stay at Paris Saint Germain this summer.
Florentino Perez: “Madridistas have been disappointed. But the Mbappe that I wanted to come to Madrid is not the one he turned out to be.”
“We could not sign a pre-contract with Mbappe in January.”
“Mbappe’s mother wanted him to join Real Madrid because it was his dream. She was sad because he didn’t come.”
“France’s president called Mbappe. It’s out of this world. There are other clubs in France, I don’t know why these things happen.”
“In the end, it wasn’t the Mbappe we expected. He changed his dream.”
“Mbappe? It’s easy to explain the Mbappe thing. He betrayed no one. He conveyed to the whole world his desire to play for Madrid, it was his dream as a child, he stated it publicly. We wanted to do it in August and they didn’t let him.”
“A player I wanted to sign and didn’t come? I don’t remember, because all the ones I wanted, I have signed. The good, good ones have signed.”
“We want Santiago Bernabeu to become the most entertaining place in Europe.”
“Mbappe? Madrid’s door is open to all great players who are willing to understand the greatness of this club.”
“I don’t know the figures of Mbappe’s contract. He has been more affected by political pressure. When you panic, you take the path that takes the panic away.”
“Political pressures, money and his new position inside the club made Mbappe change his mind.”
“You go to Qatar and they offer you things that drive you crazy. This is why Mbappe changed.”
“Mbappe? He changed his mind. It’s not easy when the President, the Mayor, calls you. It is not normal. You go to Qatar and they give you things that drive you crazy.”
“I was shocked when I saw Mbappe’s problems with the French federation. I thought this is NOT my Mbappe.”
“I prefer Mbappe to stay at PSG because this isn’t the Mbappe I know. I don’t want him now.”
“I’ve never said Mbappe to Real Madrid is over. Things can change in 3 years.”
