Frenchman Kylian Mbappe, the current Paris Saint-Germain and former Monaco star, preferred to move to Barcelona at the expense of Real Madrid in the summer of 2017.
Mbappe moved from Monaco to Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the summer of 2017 on loan with the right to buy.
According to the French network Le Sport 10, Barcelona tried to obtain Mbappe’s signature in 2017 after Neymar da Silva moved to Paris, taking advantage of the release clause in his contract amounting to 222 million euros.
She indicated that Mbappe at that time preferred moving to Barcelona over Real Madrid, believing that he could get more minutes of participation with Barca than with Merengue.
She explained that Barcelona, after careful study of the deal, decided to stop negotiations with Mbappe, and preferred French winger Ousmane Dembélé, who was playing at the time with Borussia Dortmund, over him.
