PSG Sporting Director Leonardo has told French authoritative sports newspapers 'L'Équipe', that money is Kylian  Mbappé secondary consideration in deciding where he plays after June 30, 2022.

Speaking in the wake of the news report that PSG has offered Mbappe 100 million euros net to sign a new short term deal and between 50 and 53 million per season in a contract of two to three years, Leonardo said that "no concrete offer has been made". 

The sports director took the floor in L'Équipe, to slip the version of the Parisian team regarding the information that adds spice to the potential landing of Mbappe in Real Madrid. 

Said Leonardo "the money is secondary", since "to put the amount, it will take two minutes at the end"

Declaration of intentions that starred in ' El Larguero' in the early hours of Wednesday to this Thursday.

In the SER program they have no doubt that Mbappé will end up playing for Madrid, no matter how much they insist from Paris on postponing his departure. 

Antonio Romero defends the position of calm within Madrid: "I am surprised that there are people thinking about what Madrid is going to do. They are calm, and there is no other possibility in my head. Any renewal offer that has come to them has It was a very lucrative offer and he has turned it down ."

The same opinion is held by Mario Torrejón, who defends that "there are no reasons to be uneasy, his decision is firm" and adds: "I think PSG's offer is old despite the fact that the news was from Wednesday. That offer, even if it is younger, in terms of amount of money, I don't think it's better than Mbappé's or it will make him lose money if he goes to Madrid. It's a dizzying figure, yes, but he will win it playing for Madrid" .

In addition, it adds a final nuance, already detailed above: Mbappé will decide on his future. "Even if there is an economic penalty for a private agreement, it doesn't matter because PSG can pay for it. The peace of mind comes from his iron will to come. I already told El Larguero that the footballer wanted to take his future and not his family," he added Torrejon.

 While Jordi Martí closed the talk by pointing to the economic muscle of the Parisian team: "It is again evident that PSG have no shame in showing off the money they have. As with the Russian tycoons, it is a competition with all kinds of grievances"
