After the renewal of Kylian Mbappé with PSG, the president of the club, Nasser Al Khelaifi, gave a press conference in which he left a forceful message to Javier Tebas, president of LaLiga, whom he accused of being afraid that Ligue 1 is better than the Spanish championship.
We must remember that this response from Al Khelaifi comes after Tebas strongly criticized Mbappé’s renewal, since he classified the operation as an insult to football knowing that the losses that the Parisian team has had in recent years.
“What PSG is going to do by renewing Mbappé with large amounts of money (who knows where and how he pays them) after making losses of 700M€ in recent seasons and having more 600 M€ of salary mass, it is an insult to football. Al-Khelafi is as dangerous as the Super League”, commented Tebas after confirming the renewal of the French footballer.
Even LaLIga announced that it would make a formal complaint against PSG. A situation that the president of the French team did not ignore and that he decided to give his opinion and send a clear message to LaLiga.
“Javier Tebas is afraid that Ligue 1 will surpass LaLiga. I take only the positive for us as a club. As you know, I have a lot of respect for the League. But we deserve respect. We have the best player in the world and that is the most important thing of all. Afterwards, the things that Tebas says are not my problem. You may be afraid that Ligue 1 is better than LaLiga. LaLiga is not the same as it was 3 or 4 years ago”, exclaimed Al Khelaifi.
With the renewal assured, Mbappé will play with PSG until 2025 and will earn 50 millions of euros net per season.
