Would Mbappé leaving PSG for Real Madrid have an impact on Ligue 1? Chief of Montpellier weighs in Would Mbappé leaving PSG for Real Madrid have an impact on Ligue 1? Chief of Montpellier weighs in

If Kylian Mbappé chooses to leave Paris Saint-Germain, his departure will have an impact on both the national team and French football. Many fans anticipate seeing the 24-year-old when PSG travels.

The absence of Mbappé will hurt, whether at Ligue 1 stadiums or lower division sites during the Coup de France. The absence of the 2018 FIFA World Cup champion would have an impact on Ligue 1’s broadcast rights, according to Laurent Nicollin, the current president of Montpellier.

Nicollin told RMC Sport (via Canal Supporters) that it was always preferable to have your finest players available when soliciting suitors. “Paris accepts Dembélé even without Mbappé. Lyon and Marseille have sizable rosters and have attempted to sign four or five top-tier players. Last year’s championship was fantastic, both up and down.

“Finally, having Mbappé is always preferable, but that’s the total. You must participate on a team. Strasbourg, Nice, and Lens are available. The finest players may be retained, and new ones can be recruited, thanks to foreign cash. As there would be fewer games and stronger European teams, we have increased the number of clubs to 18.

We’ll have more UEFA points, I promise. We need points from European clubs to sell our rights. Ligue 1 is a highly competitive league. We have a European-level deficit, particularly when you consider how far the Belgians, Dutch, and Portuguese can go. To do that, we proceeded to 18.

The French player is dead keen on joining Real Madrid. He could, however, postpone leaving the capital club as a free agent until the next summer. PSG will push for a transfer this year to guarantee they get a transfer fee.

The summer transfer window will open in a few weeks, and Mbappé will be the center of attention. The Frenchman can quit or remain strong and leave as a free agent.
