Kylian Mbappe’s decision to reject Real Madrid and commit to Paris Saint-Germain for three more seasons marks the start of a large rebuilding project at the French champion. Since cash-rich Qatari investors took over in 2011, PSG has been a dominant force in France but has consistently failed to replicate that success on the European stage despite spending massive amounts on star players.
In addition to the colossal sums of money reportedly promised to the 23-year-old forward-financial terms of Mbappe’s new deal have not been disclosed-the France star has received guarantees that things will change in a big way, with a new coach and a new sporting director likely to be appointed.
