What a drama every season with Mbappe

I thin they have accepted that he will leave by now. They don't accept that he will leave for free.
That's a different issue, and they are doing what they can to force him bring an offer now and leave now rather than for free
Yes, it's something he is pulling on them, like many players with inflated brains helped by agents try to pull on clubs nowadays

Nah nothing conclusive here to say they're happy to let him go. Too many people viewing their actions as actions of a 'normal club. It's exactly how leaks to Romano and press are presenting them as, which is against their image to date. In reality comms so far are designed to smear him and make PSG fans turn on him for wanting to milk club dry, and discourage him from doing so, ideally by committing to at least fulfil rest of his contract.
They're prideful and don't care about making money from his sale. They won't admit defeat this easily. Haven't even rolled out big guns like last time with pressure from government to keep him
Too early to say for sure
Mbappe so far well within his rights to communicate intent to depart in 2024. Club just needs to play their cards to try and keep him longer correctly. If try to bench him for a few months but he's introduced later and helps them to CL final for instance it'd be a good way to turn the negotiations on its head and entice him to play out final year of contract at least
Would be very surprised if we don't hear their "we received no offers reflecting his value yet" line several times till September

I won't be surprised if he rejects real Madrid yet again
Small team being treated like trash. Nothing new.
Perez needs to get down on his knees and beg for him at this point.

To know whether they are not bluffing with this one, Perez has to submit an offer actually reflecting his value even with 1 year remaining on his contract.
Something in the region of 120-180 m is that.
That didn't happen last time around (summer 2021) when Perez tried to play the smart bird and buy him for under his market value money.
So if he tries again to lowball with an unreflective offer, they will be justified to say that

You can’t fault Mbappe for not renewing and wanting at big fat loyalty bonus from PSG, but he is a prick to leave for free to Madrid, to screw PSG’s financial FairPlay (without selling him it effects their FFP drastically I read) and to get a fat sign on bonus from Madrid as a result of joining them for free.
I have zero love for PSG but it is disheartening to see Madrid getting him for free. Madrid needs to bleed.

They won't be getting him for free. 100m signing-on bonus for Mbappe in these conditions is a given. It's just that he's pocketing all the money involved in the deal and PSG are screwed basically. And it's a cheaper deal for Madrid obviously, by 25-50% depending on the size of that sign-on bonus.
PSG seem to have woken up finally about the dangers of using money as your single argument basically. But it's too late with Mbappe. He's in his prime now and if he doesn't move now... he's in danger of wasting his best years at PSG.

Nah
There were two bids, of minimum 160. Latter was debatable around 200+20 or 40 depending which report you believe.
Perez knows he should lowball to get his way anyhow. Only question is whether he's willing to gamble on Mbappe not changing mind again. But would think he unfortunately learned his lesson and might agree to pay close to asking price. Which will be in excess of 200 if they're ever going to actually consider being open to a sale
Then again I might eat my words cuz he's always been a gambler
Thing is PSG were delaying the inevitable, and probably should have sold him when Madrid offered 200m.
In the end it did not benefit them sportingly to keep him. And in turn, they also created the beast, paying him way too much, way too early into his career.
Madrid will face the same problems as we did with Messi if they chose to keep him and keep renewing him. And Mbappe has already showed his face, that he will prefer a short/medium term contract and keep the power to himself. What he done to PSG he might do to Madrid, and move to the next big bidder... a Saudi owned top tier side in Europe (when Newcastle arrive there or someone else).
How about 100m for 'Arry and 100m (sign on) for Mbappe next year. Two for the price of one, and if Mbappe flip-flops again, you still got one WC player who already speaks French.
