Good morning. Unlike YouTubers and other recently blooming herbs, this summer the traditional media, considering that it can still come, are talking relatively little about the Mbappé affair. Of course: the Mbappé affair is speaking volumes and volumes of books about the traditional media.
For example, there is Brand. Marca has an ambivalent position on the matter. While its most conspicuous editors emphatically deny, in gatherings here and there, the possibility of it coming, the newspaper as such flirts with the idea on its front pages. But pay attention to the angle from which the newspaper directed by Juancho Gallardo invariably approaches the subject: it is the Qatari angle.
Relations with Real Madrid broken, all the information related to the affair Kylian comes to Marca from the opposite side of the shore, that is, from PSG. Let’s remember that the relations of the best-selling newspaper in Spain with Al Khelaifi have been splendid since they became paddle tennis partners many months ago. If you look closely, you will see that all the information that Marca publishes about the French star is unequivocally coming from the vicinity of the Eiffel Tower, not to mention the vicinity of the Persian Gulf. What Marca knows how to provide us with verbatim these days are the threats that Al Khelaifi wields against Mbappé to make him do one of two things: renew his contract or accept a transfer to a club other than Real Madrid, given that Nasser has his pride and his little heart. He doesn’t even like to lose paddle tennis, and for the star to end up in Valdebebas would be an ignominious defeat for him and for the Qatari regime, eager to mark a geopolitical package on the international scene, with football as an excuse.
Nasser’s threats, which Marca occasionally echoes because he knows them very closely, are as dark as they are sometimes laughable. Today is a good example. Marca (or the sheikh speaking through his mouth) interprets the already secure hiring of Dembélé (and the more than likely Gonçalo Ramos) by PSG as “more pressure” for Mbappé.
What more pressure for Mbappé? It will be the opposite. Nasser has already thrown himself into the open grave to replace Kylian, and that tips the balance on the player’s side if he does it somewhere. The Parisian club has serious FPF problems, so that new additions have to be compensated with new sales, being that of Mbappe the most obvious and being Real Madrid, in principle, the only destination desired by the player. Therefore, the pressure falls more and more on the head of the leader, while the frying pan is more and more gripped by the handle on the part of the striker.
As, on the other hand, is consistent with the personal line of his directors, who affirm that he is not going to come, and skip the Mbappé subject. They assume a risk that can turn out well or badly, although what they have left over in any case are the Twitter quibbles to the communicators who, legitimately and according to their information, which do not have to coincide, consider that Kylian will arrive.
Ase chooses a very different theme as the main theme of its cover, and it is certainly a subject very worthy of being taken into account, although it misses the point. The clubs in the league, in fact, have only spent 253 million so far in the summer market, with the hiring of Bellingham by Real Madrid corresponding to 2/5 of that figure. In fact, the Spanish market has become a seller instead of a buyer, and it is no longer just the petroclub and/or the Premier who take players from us, but also Mexico (with all due respect), as the example shows. de Canales that also appears on the cover of As.
Bellingham to Madrid while the rest of the national teams flee the footballers. This speaks highly of the solvency of Madrid and fatally of the ruin in which the Spanish league finds itself. So what’s the point of “The (Spanish) market goes on a diet”? It’s not that he’s going on a diet, it’s that he’s starving. It is not that he voluntarily embraces a Dukan diet to lose love handles, but rather that he does not have a sad piece of bread to put in his mouth.
What is the reason for this euphemism to refer to the rubble of the Spanish championship that we have left? Very simple: why expose it with the crudeness that the subject would require, it would make As an enemy with Thebes, which is the main person responsible for the ruin, and Thebes waters the middle coffers of the Grupo Prisa with publicity (explicit or covert), like those of the rest of editorial groups, precisely with the aim of hiding the financial catastrophe of Spanish football, led by the CVC initiative.
Take as an example this advertorial that Tebas inserted yesterday on the As website, with a certainly appalling shamelessness.
The thing about Diario AS advertising LA LIGA IMPULSO – CVC and that thanks to this the stadiums are being changed, using the image of the Bernabeu they are going to have to explain it to me carefully

How do you see it, friends? To illustrate the “modernization and facelift” of CVC, Tebas majestically uses an image of no other stadium than the Santiago Bernabéu, a major work in the history of sports venues on the planet that has not exactly been financed by CVC but by the financial solvency of Real Madrid, led by Florentino Pérez. And Real Madrid represents, precisely, the fiercest opposition to CVC that has been recorded since the launch of that nefarious usury operation.
Going back to Mbappé, is it this league that we want the French striker to join? To the league of Thebes? If Florentino achieves the feat of incorporating the star, he will have carried out a tour de force in the same face of the petroclubs even greater than that of Bellingham. But he will also have managed to demonstrate that playing for Madrid continues to be such an inexcusable claim for football stars that it even compensates, however terrible the disincentive, the obligation to play the putrid Spanish league that playing for Madrid brings with it.
We leave you with the cataculé press, which clings to the hope of Bernardo Silva after losing Dembélé.
Have a good day.
