Kylian Mbappe LAUGHS When an Arsenal Fan Invites Him to Join the Gunners and Claims There's 'No Way'
- 2 months ago
Kylian Mbappe laughed in the face of a young Arsenal fan who suggested he should join the club.
The PSG hotshot found it incredibly amusing and told the youngster that there was 'no way' he would join the Premier League leaders.
He is due to sign for Real Madrid in the summer when his contract in Paris expires and will take a £8.5million pay cut.
However, a handsome signing-on fee of £85.5m and the chance to play for the 14-time Champions League winners somewhat smooth the transition.
Mbappe told the boy precisely why he would not link up with Mikel Arteta's side when pressed for an answer.
'It's too cold there,' he admitted.
Forecasts for the coming week predict that Parisians will enjoy temperatures a couple of degrees warmer than residents of London. Madrid will be around seven degrees hotter than England's capital.
Whether or not that's the real reason he would spurn the Gunners for Madrid, only Mbappe knows.
Afterwards, the fan wrote: 'I tried Arsenal. Your loss Mbappe.'
Arsenal's form this season is no laughing matter.
The Gunners sit top of the Premier League and are in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, where they will face Harry Kane's Bayern Munich.
Real Madrid, who Mbappe looks set to join, have been drawn against Manchester City.
Mbappe has agreed on terms with the Spanish club although neither Paris Saint-Germain nor Madrid has made any formal statement.
Despite losing out in terms of basic wage Mbappe will be paid a sizeable signing-on fee understood to be over 100m euros (£85.6m) and will keep an 80 percent share of image rights on any new commercial deals he signs after becoming a Madrid player.
This breaks from the normal 50-50 split the club usually imposes on new players.
Mbappe is expected to wear Luka Modric’s number 10 shirt next season with the Croatian set to depart.
Confirmation in Madrid of the club’s capture of Mbappe ends their seven-year pursuit of the French World Cup winner.
His decision to leave Paris for Madrid has been welcomed in the Spanish capital as the final piece in the puzzle for Ancelotti to lead a team that can dominate European football for the next decade.
