What's next: Kylian Mbappe. Matthieu Mirville

Mbappe's mother denies he has agreed deal to stay at PSG

Uncertainty reigns over the French World Cup-winning forward’s future.

KYLIAN MBAPPE’S MOTHER has denied a report in France that her son has agreed in principle to stay at Paris Saint-Germain for up to another three years and shun a move to Real Madrid.

Le Parisien newspaper reported on Thursday that PSG’s Qatari owners had offered Mbappe a salary of €50 million ($53 million) a season and a loyalty bonus of €100 million if he stays.

The report said the club had offered a two-year contract with the option of a third year.

But Mbappe’s mother Fayza Lamari tweeted that the  had not yet come to a decision.

“There is no agreement in principle with Paris Saint-Germain (or with any other club),” she said. “Discussions around the future of Kylian are continuing calmly to allow him to make the best choice, respecting all the parties involved,” she added.

Mbappe, 23, has made no secret of his desire to play one day for Real, who this week reached the Champions League final just days after securing a 35th Spanish title.

But PSG, who have won the Ligue 1 title for a record-equalling tenth time but angered their hardcore supporters with their limp exit to Real in the last 16 of the Champions League, are battling to hold onto their biggest asset.

    It was a stupid statement by the county board and embarrassing for most Cork Gaa fans. They should have said that Cork came close and will learn from it and move on. Blaming the ref is childish and embarrassing. However, I think what they said regarding Cuthbert was correct. It is terrible that he got so much personal abuse from keyboard warriors. He tried his best and made some progress with the team. Going forward John Cleary is the right man for the job and I hope he takes up the role sooner rather than later. The Rebels will rise again. It Will just take time.

    I keep reading how Cork GAA fans are so embarrassed by this. I am a Cork GAA fan and I am not embarrassed, I am absolutely delighted with this statement. Anything that shows up the county board for what they are the better.

    Many from out side the county didn’t understand the need for the strikes, to many it appeared to be a team of primadonnas full of their importance and blaming the county board for their failures was just a convenient excuse for their failures. It seemed crazy to blame the demise of Cork GAA on the County Board and Frank. These games were lost on the field surely but know Cork are setup to fail in many cases. Palls of the board get the top coaching positions whether they are the best candidates or not.

    Finally those outside the county might be starting to see what we are dealing with. It’s a shame that airing our dirty laundry in public seems to be the only way but unfortunately it is. Anything that exposed the ineptitude of our county board and puts pressure on Frank and co is a good thing in my book.

    Unbelievable in this day and age that a county board could let a childish statement out to the media and expect no fall out from it. While some of their grievances are well merited they should of held fire and not embarrass the proud people of cork. Who in their right mind would let their name go forward for the senior job now. Until their is a complete clear out of county board officials this I am afraid is par for the course going forward. Finally I think the clubs of cork will react properly to this embarrassment and finally do something about it.
