“I have NEVER discussed any contract renewal with PSG”.

“The board has been informed since July 15th, 2022 of my decision not to extend beyond 2024 — and the letter sent was only meant to confirm what I already told them”.

    Why exactly are clubs so reluctant to let players leave on a free when they’ve been at the club this long? Surely a player like Mbappe has sort of “paid back” his transfer fee after all the time he’s spent there?

              No real are community owned. They don’t have one owner.

              Along with Barcelona, Athletic Bilbao and Osasuna, Real Madrid is organised as a registered association. This means that the club is owned by its supporters who elect the president.

                Good callout. I’d honestly forgotten about that takeover, so I’m glad you bring that up. As a Bayern fan, I hope the DFB/Bundesliga never change the 50%+1 fan ownership rule.

                  Hello fellow Bayern fan, are there any plans to liven up the !FCBayern!fcbayern@feddit.de subreddit? It’s the only one I could find and it’s virtually dead. r/fcbayern over at Reddit is going strong though…

    If PSG were smart they’d gut the team and focus on young, up and coming French talent. Their vanity project has failed, and they were as close to the CL championship as they will get for awhile.
