Sharing with Diario Sport, former Barcelona sports director Javier Bordas revealed an interesting revelation about the Kylian Mbappe deal.
Kylian Mbappe is expected to join Real Madrid in the summer of 2024 but this player should have gone to Barcelona. Mbappe decided not to sign a contract extension with Paris Saint-Germain and will leave the club in June 2024.
The French captain confirmed that his destination will be revealed before EURO 2024. At this time, Real Madrid is considered the most potential destination.
Mbappe is about to join Real Madrid.
Los Blancos will not pay a transfer fee, because Mbappe arrives on a free basis. Few people know that the French striker almost joined Barcelona.
Former Barcelona sports director Javier Bordas said that if he remained in his position, an agreement could have been signed with Mbappe.
Specifically, this person affirmed: ” If I was still in power, Mbappe would definitely have played for Barca. Mbappe could have gone to Barca.
We don’t know the price but he could cost 100 million euros. However, at that time, the coaches told us they wanted Ousmane Dembele.”
According to Bordas, Barcelona followed Mbappe during his time with the club from 2014 to 2015.
