Therefore, with his old age it is time for Ramos to retire and or, if Ramos chooses to continue his career then playing in the Saudi Professional League is the right choice. Because the most important thing at this moment is of course to have a big income, because Ramos already has a lot of awards too and it's the same path with Ronaldo. But yes, if Ramos is really going to play in the Saudi Professional League then Ronaldo, Benzema and Ramos will be competing because they will not be on the same team.

Yes, you're right, it's better to see Ramos join the Saudi league, considering that he is already 37 years old, there are certainly not many choices of competitive clubs that are suitable for Ramos. But that doesn't mean Ramos needs to hang up his boots or retire immediately. On the other hand, with the big name and experience that Ramos has, he has a big chance of getting to a club outside Europe.

As written in several media, Ramos was found to have put a like sign on a post by an Instagram user recently and in the upload it was stated that Ramos and Real Madrid player, Luka Modric were suggested to join the Saudi Arabian club, Al-Ahli. Indeed, until now Ramos has not made any statement regarding this matter. It's just that, seeing the aggressiveness of Saudi Arabian clubs lately, a move to Al-Ahli is not an inevitability for Ramos. but let's see later where Ramos will choose the continuation of his career.

Prefer to see ramos goes to the saudi league and retire with a lot of money on his pocket. I didn't expect anything else from ramos since he has been winning UCL 4 times and he has great journey with real madrid.
It's time for him to enjoy his life. Following benzema's decision gonna be the best decision that will be taken by him. Ramos putted very big expectation to won UCL easily with PSG but it didnt meet.

He is 37 years old now. It's time for him to think about his retirement.

Which is a problem in PSG's squad and management, is not handled by a team that is professional in football. now, the future of the PSG star is once again in hot news following claims that he has no interest in extending his contract with PSG. therefore, PSG do not want to lose their valuable assets with free transfers.
just imagine, Mbappe's enormous salary of €900,000 a week means that few clubs in the world can afford his arrival. even though there are clubs that will get it for free, the problem of salary is still a problem.

Reliable reporter Ben Jacobs claims officials at Paris Saint-Germain are "outraged" by the news that Mbappe has no interest in triggering the option of a one-year extension to the deal. but new rumors report that Manchester United are ready to enter the hunt for the transfer of Kylian Mbappe. previously, Madrid were reluctant to try and sign Mbappe this summer. meaning that an opportunity can present itself to Manchester United.

Under the Glazers, a transfer like this would be completely out of the question. however, with Sheikh Jassmin's takeover of the club expected to be announced soon, the Qatari side is reportedly preparing a fund for 5 blockbuster players. but so far, there is no certainty regarding what we are discussing. and if Mbappe is adamant about not activating his contract extension option until June 2025, that means, it would hardly be a surprise if PSG finally let him go this summer.

To be honest if PSG was rarely making profit from the transfer saga between the football club. Mbappe already signed from monaco with €180m. I don't even think PSG will let him stay with no option to extend his contract till 2025.
That's why PSG said that if the club feel betrayed by mbappe. It's caused by mbappe will be leaving from the club with a free agent. That means if PSG will be losing €180m

It will be so good for PSG to sell him like €100m to another club before his contract will end, rather than get nothing from him.
Mbappe never had a great journey with PSG especially when it came to the UCL. Mbappe was only able helping PSG to go to the final against bayern but it lost.

€100m will be very useful for PSG rather than remaining year of mbappe in the club. It's caused by PSG will be able to sign the new superstar from another club.

Indeed, PSG is like an authoritarian club where they can arrange everything they want when they have got the players they want and it is evident that most of the players who have left very few have sweet memories with this club. It is clear that when things don't go according to PSG's wishes, most of the players will feel uncomfortable and that is what Mbappe is currently experiencing.

It is very clear that Mbappe has made a statement that he will remain with PSG until 2024 when his contract ends, but PSG will still insist on selling him because of course PSG will lose big when Mbappe changes his status to a free agent in 2024. I hope PSG will experience difficulties in the next season if they will be left behind by all the key players and in the end they will sink because they put too much pressure on these players.

Rumors for star players like that are always easier to stick out in the public media, even though they are not necessarily true, because Mbappe is a player who is quite good and also smart so it is also natural that rumors are widely discussed at this time. And I personally would also be very happy if these rumors come true because Real Madrid will be much stronger with a player like Mbappe in their team. Apart from that, there is some truth to what you said where if Mbappe continues to stay at PSG, it will be difficult for him to win the UCL trophy.

The only thing Mbappe got on Messi is age. Messi has won two balon d' ors since after the 2018 world cup and is o course to win another this year. You know what Messi has achieved individually when he was Mbappe's age.

Mbappe is a very important player for PSG no doubt, some might argue with reasonable points that he's the most important, but PSG is a a very bad clubs when it comes to footballing business and that is why the departure of Mbappe would cause them so much trouble.
PSG is a rich club, so recruiting players should not be an issue for them, but they want too rely on Mbappe to do all the work. There are players that start for PSG that will leave you with so many questions like "how can a player like this be starting for a club like PSG. They have a very weak recruiting team at that club.

Right now they have already started making signing when they have not gotten a coach. So they will end up getting players that are not the coaches type of players and might not fit into the coaches system. They just want to keep Mbappe at all cost. It shouldn't be so.
The best thing to do with Mbappe is to let him play this final season a the club, use this one year to look for players that can sustain their clubs. A single player doesn't win trophies for a club, it has to be a team effort.
So they should look for a way to rebuild their squad from the defense to the attack. The clubs winning the champions league don't have Mbappe in their squad. So they can do well without Mbappe with the right management.

It is all up to PSG and whether they want to make some money selling Mbappe or not. I am sure they don't really need the money, so it is possible that we will see Mbappe play for PSG for another year against his real desire and intention.

I wonder whether you just compared the 24 years old Mbappe to the 35 years old Messi or whether you compared the 24 years old Mbappe to the 24 years old Messi? Mbappe has a long way to go to score the numbers that Messi scored at age 24. At age 24 Messi had 68 scorer points in La Liga only, with 50 goals scored and 18 assists. He also scored 14 goals in the Champions League.

Just as a comparison, Mbappe had 34 scorer points in Ligue 1 this season. That is 50% of Messi.

Mbappe can still become the best of the best but he won't become that playing for PSG.

In several seasons after the 2018 World Cup, Mbappe has proven his playing skills, even when compared to Messi, Mbappe is superior.
As I expected that PSG will release several players in attack but as for Mbappe I still don't believe that PSG will let him go considering he has become a core player there.
By releasing Mbappe's departure, wouldn't it actually be able to bring PSG in difficult times because the player they relied on had left there.

from Mbappe's dream of wanting to win a title in the UCL, this will provide a great opportunity for Real Madrid to have to take it if it is true that Mbappe leaves PSG. because we know for ourselves that Real Madrid is one of the football teams that often wins the UCL and of course Mbappe also agrees that if the price given is confirmed by Madrid PSG there will be no hope of advancing to the UCL final without Mbappe.

but anyway these are still rumours and let's see if Mbappe will continue his dreamless career.

Big change firstly comes from Real Madrid. They did not plan to lose Benzema in the summer and were in talk with Benzema to sign a new contract. However, the super good offer from Al Itihad convinced Benzema to leave and Real Madrid respected the player to end the contract one year before its expiration with a consensus between Real Madrid and Benzema.

It changed many things in Real Madrid transfer strategy and they will have to look at Mbappe one year sooner than they thought.

PSG know that they should not put themselves at a similar situation like one year ago, when Mbappe became a free agent and can leave Paris without any cent for the club. If they can not prolong the contract with Mbappe in this summer, they will let him go.

But again I read rumor that the French President Macron tries to do some political pressure to keep Mbappe in PSG and Ligue 1. Will it happen again and Mbappe will stay in PSG with a new contract?

Many comparison between Mbappe and Haaland as new dual competitors like Messi and Ronaldo. This season, Haaland got a treble achievement with Manchester City and won his first Champions League. It will be biggest challenge for Mbappe to decide his future in PSG. He is not happy because Champions League is his dream some recent seasons but never touched it.

Perez was waiting for the next year to sign mbappe. It's caused by his contract gonna end next year and real madrid will not need to pay the non sense release clause that will be asked by PSG.
Perez already expected if PSG will not try to sell him with cheap price even though his contract is only 1 year remaining in PSG. That's why real madrid said to sign him next year if mbappe has not yet got a new club for him next year.
It will be different if mbappe will leave from PSG this summer.

Agreed. PSG shall not repeat the same mistake again. Mbappe's contract end next year and there's no better choice other than selling him to the another club. It will make PSG able to get money from selling mbappe.

But I don't agree with you and I think since he rejected the offer from PSG to extend his contract he obviously wants to leave his team soon and there is not any interest from his side to stay in PSG and the PSG owner knows that. They also know Mbappe got many worthy offers from other teams. That's why they will sell Mbappe to earn some money from selling him instead of keeping this player in a team he doesn't want to be in.
The smartest move from Mbappe can be accepting the offer from Real Madrid with way PSG can have some benefits too. Also, he will join a team where he can have more chances to earn more better achievements there.

Mbappe was PSG's main player before Messi, during Messi and after Messi's departure he remains the main player. And it seems that your prediction is in danger of being completely wrong: PSG are forced to sell Mbappe, and PSG want to get rid of Neymar. Most likely, both of these players will not be in PSG next season, but I don’t think that even taking this into account, PSG will lose their dominance in Ligue 1.

I don't think Mbappe will agree to an offer from Real Madrid this season. He wanted to stay with PSG even though the PSG management was furious with Mbappe behavior for not wanting to renew his contract. Well, some Manchester United rumors are also associated with Mbappe. I think Mbappe is more interested in choosing to accept an offer from Manchester United. We will see the future speculation in the transfer window this season because for now PSG relationship with Mbappe is on the verge of breaking up after refusing to sign a new contract or he will be released in this transfer window.

I'm going to be very positive about this player but I think even at 40y old Sergio Ramos can have a good performance all needs to have in PSG was more support from the fans and he couldn't get that at all.



The rumors are true and I think we all know Mbappe is going to leave PSg because the PSG owner is not even trying hard to keep this player in the team anymore.
Teams like Real Madrid are also waiting for a chance to hire Mbappe and they were waiting since the previous season for this moment.

Florentino Perez said that Real Madrid were going to sign Mbappe but not this summer. However the coming days might still change this situation. Because as you said PSG board are determined about not letting him go for free. But while there is no chance to convince Mbappe after that statement of him there is only one choice left.

PSG will need to sell Mbappe as soon as possible. Otherwise they would have no chance left after the new season starts. Because he will be much closer to be available for contract offer from other teams. Honestly PSG owner is very rich so they shouldn't worry about letting him go for free.

I know that they are paying a huge amount of money for Mbappe's contract now so they want a consolation amount against that. But they really need Mbappe for being competitive for the Champions League next season. I don't know if they can find a great replacement in a short time.

PSG is not something they want to actually "win", that's not the point. It's a media thing and they need to be there to actually be heard, if it's a win that's not getting media attention, they rather not win it, they don't care. Which is why it's not going to be easy to build a team slowly, if they did that they would be terrible.

This has been discussed before, they need media attention and Mbappe gave them that. They need to spend a ton of money so that they could have a big name club, big names in the club means more newspaper and more attention. I think it's going to take a while but it will certainly be a situation where the owner requires them to get some huge names to play for them and be loved by the world or at least get talked about the very least.

I think Mbappé should realize that it is not healthy for him to stay in PSG anymore. He is not achieving anything other than money in PSG. And that is just not good for his career. It is also not good for his legacy. Well, maybe he doesn’t care about his reputation. Probably he just cares about the money that he is getting from PSG. That is the only reason and only logic I can find for him to stay in PSG still. PSG should let him go. I know the owner of PSG is a very rich man, and he does not need to earn money by selling players. But I don’t think even he is going to want to take a loss of 200 million. So probably the best decision right now is going to be selling Mbappé.
