The most interesting thing is that Mbappe's transfer to the Saudi club does not completely cancel the subsequent transfer of the player to Real Madrid, if Real Madrid is not going to pay money for the transfer now and get the player a free agent for next season, and the Saudi club is just not averse to releasing the player to all four sides after the end of the season. Therefore, I absolutely do not understand why one season on the bench of Paris Saint-Germain will not have a negative impact on the player's career, but a season in the same championship with such stars as Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema will definitely have a negative impact. At least, I don't see any European club, including PSG itself, that agrees and can pay money of the same order as the Saudis. At least, Usain Bolt has already joked that for such money he would resume his career, or maybe he really just subtly hinted about his beloved 

the PSG president once said that mbappe would never go to madrid, so PSG management did everything possible to make mbappe not go to madrid and also get a big profit from selling mbappe, so when there was an offer from al hilal with an extraordinary transfer value, PSG management urged mbappe to agree to it.
however mbappe was reluctant to go there because he knew that if he now went to al hilal then his football career would be dimmed. madrid is mbappe's dream club since long ago, I'm sure the pressure and intimidation that PSG management will put on him will not work because he only wants to go to madrid.

I'm not surprised that mbappe wants to leave for Saudi... Nobody would reject such an exceptional offer if I may say...
Secondly, PSG has already promised $1 billion for a 10 year contract, with which that alone would determine mbappe's career... I believe that's exactly the same reasons he's pressing to leave PSG and play for a resounding club like Madrid... Cus 10 years from now would only make him 34, exactly the age most players sign out on retirements.. so I just hope Saudi doesn't entice him more after the end of the season - maybe with some more $1.2 billion offer? ...I mean those guys are insanely rich and they can do anything they want...

If the reports about Mbappe and Al-Hilal's bid are correct, PSG has already accepted the 300 million and warranted Mbappe the right to have negotiations with Al-Hilal. For PSG it looks as if it is about the money and that they want to get rid of him at the right price. The discussions about him and also the attacks against each other between PSG and Mbappe are not very promising should they end up spending another season together. Mbappe will let the clock run down now and force all interested parties to raise their offer as long as they can.

I don't really think that PSG will still want to keep Mbape,atleast not after opening up on the fact that he doesn't want to stay at the club again.He has already set his mind on living,and I don't think PSG will hold him back.MBape is a good player,who is aiming higher,and he has known that now that Messi is no longer at PSG,there is every tendency that PSG cannot win the champions league again,and he really wants to make that win to really kick off his career.He is a player that every body tip to be a perfect replacement to Christiano Ronaldo because they almost  have thesame pattern of football. Mbape is a strouggler,while Christiano is also a strouggler,they both struggle to get goals for their teams ,while the likes of Messi is a born goal scorer,whether he plays at the midfield or attack,he will still score regardless of where he plays.

I think as the PSG owner said they won't be the lower in this game because if Mbappe extends his contract this can be a great win the PSG and the owner of this team to sell him even for a higher price and if they sell Mbappe still there are many teams they want to spend too much money for this palyer and this can make PSG have enough money to hire other players and replace Mbappe.

Al-Hilal wants to prove that it is possible to control the whole of football with only money. That's why they are willing to spend around 1 billion for Mbappe. They want to prove their capabilities to the whole world. And if Mbappe plays for Al-Hilal this year, I'd say we'll see a lot of star players in the Saudi league in the next few years. And the Saudi League will make unprecedented improvements. The Saudi government will invest in their clubs. And in the coming season, they will try to bring in as many young players as possible. And with the amount of wages that Saudi clubs pay to players, Premier League or La Liga clubs will not be interested in paying such high wages. I think the Saudi League will emerge among the top 5 leagues in the world in the next few years.

I don't think Al-Hilal is doing that just to give their fans to watch quality football, but also to help PSG not to get a big loss. Because anyway, at this moment basically Mbappe is still willing to play at PSG but Mbappe also does not want to extend the contract. With such a situation, Al Hilal appeared who could pay big money in exchange for Mbappe to join Real Madrid in the transfer next summer. That means, Al Hilal seems to just want to help PSG, Mbappe and Real Madrid smooth out the move later.

I'm pretty sure, the fact that Mbappe is not on the list of plans for the Asian tour is not the coach's will. however, the club's management did not include their star players and even trained separately. there are various scenarios if we want to review them, the most realistic scenario is to put pressure on their star player. if, indeed the club is serious about letting him go in this summer transfer window. although actually PSG is aware, that the player's decision is the determinant of extending the contract or leaving.

But if we refer to the drama that has happened, it is likely that the situation will be similar to Ronaldo when he was still with Manchester United. if in the end Mbappe stays, but is not willing to sign a new contract. so you can be sure, he will lose a lot of minutes of playing time. the most extreme scenario, Mbappe won't be played at all in the new season. by the way this is just my assumption, and does not determine the facts that will happen later.
So, let's see the Mbappe transfer saga. because apparently, the closer to the end of the transfer window, the more exciting it will be.

Mbappe must be crazy not to accept that offer coming from Al-Hilal. If the details of that contract offer tied Mbappe for at least a few years there then I would understand him in case he rejects it. In the end it would be too long to stay away from European football at this young age for him. But there isn't even such situation now. He can just play for one year to get the enormous amount of money and right after that he can easily sign for Real Madrid without any obstacle ahead of him.

Al-Hilal just want him in their league to make their fans watch some quality football. I don't think staying at PSG this season is an ideal decision for him.

In fact, in the two previous matches Al Nassr suffered a big defeat by Celta Vigo and also, Al Nassr lost by Benfica. But, why PSG can't get good results like the two clubs, even though PSG have good quality too. It's really unfortunate ofcourse, as the biggest club in Ligue 1, at least PSG should be able to win big in this match too. But even so, I personally still not entirely sure whether this bad result will continue until Ligue 1 starts later. But yes, if PSG still gets bad results like this, then it won't be possible to win the Ligue 1 title either, so there will be no hope for PSG in the Champions League.

I was expecting a similar result:


But I thought that there would be at least a show and a few goals scored. But the teams decided not to strain (however, I did not see the game).
As for the prospects of PSG, I think they will easily win Ligue 1, and will perform in the Champions League no worse than in the previous 2 years when they played with Messi (elimination in 1/8).

All of the teams were feeling insecure after saw the first bid from al hilal. PSG was accepting an offer from al hilal. The way for mbappe to go to the al hilal become even closer. Mbappe just need to say yes for the proposal that will be sent by al hilal's delegation and he will become a new player for al hilal. Mbappe is not saying anything yet regarding it. I would like to see mbappe should not miss this opportunity. He wanna say in PSG due to the money.
He will get what he wants and he shall leave from PSG as soon as possible. I don't even see something better than accepting al hilal's offer right now. Mbappe will be creating a new world record as the most expensive player in the world.

I still think that this should be accepted as soon as it was offered. A 300 million deal to the team? A 200+500 deal for Mbappe? Nobody is getting that type of payment ever and I believe that Mbappe would be mad to decline that offer, so would PSG be.

PSG is said to be close to accepting the deal, they are just telling the team to talk with Mbappe's agent, and that way he could get to talking with the team, and we all know that he doesn't want to play there because it would be like a professional footballer playing against 7 year olds for him to be there, he wants to be in a serious league and getting taken seriously and he won't be there. But if he can accept the deal, he can go back to Europe just one year later. So he has to ask Real Madrid if they would still want him if he goes there.

It is true that as you can see there is a figure missing from the photo. I think this problem must be resolved first, if it is forced later it will actually interfere with the club's performance in this pre-season. Luis Enrique certainly really wants Mbappe to be on the field with his colleagues but the problem constraints make him have to postpone this first. The momentum that Luis Enrique wants will certainly be seen through this pre-season match and little by little he will also see a difference.

Anyway, PSG just finished their first pre-season match against Al-Nassr and it was clear they couldn't do anything and even getting to Al-Nassr's goal was also very difficult. The result of this match was a goalless draw for both teams and this will certainly be a lesson learned in the next match so that PSG can get better results.

PSG has gets unsatisfactory results today that playing as the favourite against Al Nassr that most of PSG fans were expected they will be able to win with big scores especially Al Nassr recent performance weren't good that they lost against Celta Vigo and Benfica with huge scores but PSG surprisingly has unable to scores which make they have to ended the match with draw result 0-0

Since the beginning of match PSG has been playing with their some of new players such as Škriniar and Asensio and they were slightly dominate the match but seems PSG players look difficult to score goals and wasted several attempts to scores goals and Luis Enrique should be evaluate this result because losing Mbappe and Neymar had a huge impact on PSG's game and it proven some of PSG strikers are still unable to adapt with Enrique strategy

I have been watching the match between PSG and al nassr. The result was unbelievable. PSG was not even able making a single goal against al nassr. Im feeling skeptical with the new squad of PSG. It seems like that this squad will be even weaker compared with last season's squad.

PSG has been also doing battle against al nassr but PSG was able winning the game with good scores. The gone of messi has been giving very big impact to the performance from the club.

How can PSG with UCL next season if the new squad of PSG is was very weak like that? Im feeling doubt about that.

Yes if we only consider the salary then he will be the best paid athlete in the world. I think everyone thought for a long time that the NBA or the MLB are the sports leagues where players can earn these ridiculous amounts of money, but now it also has arrived in soccer as well due to the Saudis. Imagine a basketball player being offered 700 million for a season in a country abroad, I can't think of a single player right now who would consider to say no to the offer. It is too much to reject it.

The club has taken a position and it seems it is final. They want him to renew his contract or leave the team this season. And it was also announced that Mbappe will not be part of the pre-season games in Japan. His future is in his hands and the clubs that want his services. PSG has accepted the $332 million offer from Al Hilal for Kylian Mbappe, it is now up to the striker to accept or reject the offer. If he accepts the offer, Mbappe will become one of the richest sportsmen in the world because the Saudi-based club is to offer 776 million dollars per season.

Some football analysts believe that it will be early retirement for the French striker if he accepts the offer. He will have to lose out on the competitive and exciting football in Europe. The money is huge but trophies and awards supersede financial gains. When it comes to sports everything is not money.

  Yes I don't think PSG would want to lose a world class player they bought for €180m on a free transfer, they would want to cash in on him even if it means lowering their demand for his price, but the idea of Mbappe moving to the Saudi Pro League might not come through, though it's actually possible considering the news I came across yesterday that Mbappe could complete a world record move to Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal after Paris Saint-Germain accepted a bid of £259million for the French superstar, that's the Highest any team has gone to get a player and considering the wage bill he'll benefit I feel maybe  it seems possible.

 But come to think of it mbappe is very young and talented and moving out of Europe to play in the Saudi league  might not be good to his career, despite the huge wage he would and and other benefits that comes with it but he'll consider remaining in euro and continue to challenge for the Ballon D'or title as well try to have a champions league trophy to his name, more Al-Hilal is not the only Club after him, it is said that manchester City and Chelsea are also in demand of the French star player he could decide to move to Manchester City if they table a bid for him considering the fact that they're in the Champions League competition whereas Chelsea ain't in any Top European competition and he stand a good chance of winning the UEFA Champions league trophy with Manchester City who're the defending champions.
