Concern at Real Madrid as Mbappe starts having doubts over move

When it seemed like it was going to end once and for all, there has been another twist. On this occasion, the Frenchman, who had a verbal agreement with Real Madrid, is doubting because he has once again sat down to listen to what PSG were offering him. 

That is what 'Marca' are saying. They add that the footballer's mother has called Real Madrid to tell them that her son is thinking about it, something which has caused Real Madrid to get very nervous. There is lots of concern at Madrid as they do not understand the reason for the change. 

The cited source says that Madrid had verbally agreed it all with the footballer - transfer bonus, image rights and length of contract - and he himself was the one who decided to sign the agreement later on. But if there is no official signature, it is useless. And right now there is uncertainty over his future signing for Real Madrid. 

What seems clear is that this weekend he will make a final decision. 'L'Equipe' reported this Thursday that the attacker announce his future this Sunday at 11:00 CEST on television while 'RMC Sport' reported that he would announce it on Saturday after the game versus Metz.

'Marca' reports that if Mbappe makes the announcement on Saturday, it will be because he is staying. If he reveals his decision on Sunday, he will leave. In the meantime, Madrid are waiting for more news although Edu Pidal gave more details on the situation at Real Madrid.

The 'Onda Cero' journalist said that there is suspicion that Mbappe wants to stay for one or two more years at PSG before making his move to Madrid. This weekend we will find out.

On the other hand, Saber Desfarges says that the Parisians have taken over at the club and is more confident than before. Internally, the club think that the situation is reversing. Nevertheless, the journalist says that Mbappe has told either of the two clubs his final decision.

Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano also reported the news and said that the footballer will hold a meeting this Friday with his inner circle and his family. Likewise, the Italians commented that Real Madrid were hoping to receive the green light from Mbappe last Tuesday, but he asked for "a bit more time to reflect."
