<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong> has big decision to make in the upcoming months. Since January 1, the superstar is free to negotiate with any team wants. That’s why <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a></strong> have been patiently waiting to sign him.</p>



<p>According to information from <em>The Athletic</em>, the Spanish club have already made an offer to Mbappe. Though he will be the best paid player in the club, Kylian might not be satisfied with the proposal.</p>



<p>That’s why <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psg">PSG</a></strong> believe they have huge chances of convincing <strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong> to stay. <strong>Nasser Al-Khelaifi</strong> has prepared a historic contract extension. All-in to keep him in <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/france">France</a></strong>.</p>



<p>However, in a shocking turn of events, a new report points out the <strong>Premier League</strong> might be an attractive destination for the 25-year old. Considering that’s the best competition on the planet, a surprise could be in the works.</p>

<h2>What will be the next team of Kylian Mbappe?</h2>



<p><strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong> will reject the first proposal made by <strong>Real Madrid</strong> according to the latest report from <em>The Times</em>. That contract offer set January as deadline for the French player to decide if he would go to Spain.</p>

<p>However, the information points out Mbappe doesn’t feel pressured at all by Florentino Perez’s warning. That’s why, the star will test the market and listen to offers, especially from the <strong>Premier League</strong>. </p>

<p>It’s important to remember that <strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong> has full control over his destiny as a free agent. Considering that the transfer will be cost-free, any club can offer him a substantial salary and incentives to sign.</p>



<p>Right now, Mbappe prefers to explore other options and a European giant club just emerged as a possible suitor. It’s no secret that Kylian’s mom (and agent) loves <strong>Liverpool</strong>.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" use="ALSO" link="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/european-giant-club-will-no-longer-be-available-on-ea-sports-fc-20231116-BUS-85977.html" image="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.bolavip.com%2Fwebp%2Fen%2Ffull%2FBUS_20231116_BUS_85977_lautaromartinez.webp&amp;width=200&amp;height=200" excerpt="A historic club will be excluded from the EA Sports FC video game after signing a massive sponsorship agreement.

Though he could have extended his agreement at&nbsp;<strong>PSG</strong>, that didn’t happen. At least, not yet.</p>



<p>After six years with&nbsp;<strong>Paris Saint-Germain</strong>, Mbappe might want the biggest challenge of his career somewhere else. In order to become the best player of the world, a change could be inevitable with names on the rise such as <strong>Jude Bellingham</strong> or <strong>Erling Haaland</strong>.</p>



<p>Right now,&nbsp;<strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong>&nbsp;has a valid contract with the French club until the summer of 2024.

<p>Of course, everything is more attractive considering Mbappe would arrive to any of those teams for free. With no transfer clause, there would be a juicy commission for the star and his family. However, it is also a fact that the player has not publicly ruled out the possibility of signing a contract extension with <strong>PSG</strong>.</p>

<p><strong>Rafael Leao</strong> is one of the most talented players at <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ac-milan" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AC Milan</a></strong>, in five seasons the Portuguese star has 47 goals in 183 games. This season there has been no question that when Rafael Leao is on, AC Milan clicks on all cylinders.<br></p>



<p>Stefano Pioli made sure to lighten the load off of Leao with the signing of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/christian-pulisic-is-ac-milans-top-rated-player-per-fotmob-20231214-BUS-91985.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">USMNT</a> winger <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/christian-pulisic" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Christian Pulisic</a></strong> who has returned that confidence in spades for his new team with six goals and four assists, freeing up Leao to create more and play more freely on the left.<br></p>



<p>Now Leao sat down with Sky Sports in Italy and talked about the next step in his career and how the talented winger can get to the level of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Kylian Mbappé.<br></p>

<p><em>“At that level numbers make the difference because Mbappe, Haaland, Messi have numbers that speak for themselves. When I think like them, I’ll get to their level.”</em><br></p>

Rafael Leao states only one thing separates him from Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé

Rafael Leao states only one thing separates him from Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé - Bolavip US

<p>According to <em>Transfermarkt</em>, both <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/erling-haaland">Erling Haaland</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong> were the world’s most valuable players for a while. But the site has recently revealed <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jude-bellingham">Jude Bellingham</a></strong> now joined the two stars atop its ranking.</p>



<p>In its latest update of market values in <strong>LaLiga</strong>, <strong>the Englishman’s price tag rose to €180 million,</strong> tying both the <strong>Manchester City</strong> striker and the <strong>Paris Saint-Germain</strong> superstar.</p>



<p>While Mbappe has been stuck at this market value since December 2022, Haaland has been valued at €180m since June 2023. Bellingham <strong>made a lot of progress in the last few months</strong>, so it’s not a surprise to see him climb in the list.</p>



<h2>Jude Bellingham’s fantastic form sees his stock rise</h2>



<p>The reported €103 million Real Madrid forked out for Bellingham in the summer <strong>immediately looked like a bargain</strong> in the wake of the midfielder’s performances. At 20, the English international has immediately exceeded expectations by showing a surprising scoring capacity.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/28095006/Jude-Bellingham-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Jude Bellingham celebrates a goal for Real Madrid" class="wp-image-71317" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Jude Bellingham celebrates a goal for Real Madrid</figcaption></figure>



<p>With <strong>13 goals in 15 league matches</strong>, Bellingham is the unexpected top scorer not only of Los Blancos, but also of the entire LaLiga this season. The Birmingham product has also found the net <strong>four times in five UEFA Champions League</strong> group stage matches.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" use="ALSO" link="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/champions-league-why-real-madrid-were-not-eligible-to-be-drawn-against-psv-20231218-BUS-92962.html" image="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.bolavip.com%2Fwebp%2Fen%2Ffull%2FBUS_20231218_BUS_92962_UCL-draw-1.webp&amp;width=200&amp;height=200" excerpt="During the UEFA Champions League round of 16 draw, fans noticed Real Madrid were not eligible as an opponent for PSV despite being from a different group and country.
" title="Champions League: Why Real Madrid were not eligible to be drawn against PSV" publication_id="BUS#20231218#BUS#92962"></div>


<p>That is enough to explain why his stock went through the roof. Bellingham’s market value had increased from €120m to €150m in October, so <strong>he’s already €60m more expensive after leaving Germany.</strong></p>



<p>In addition, Bellingham became the second player after Lionel Messi to reach this market value, as the former Barcelona star did it in 2018. Vinicius Junior was previously tied with the midfielder at €150m, but now is Jude who’s the lone most expensive Real Madrid player.</p>

<p>The contract of <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong> with <strong>PSG</strong> expires in June 2024 and he could be ready to leave <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/france">France</a></strong>. As one of the best players in the world, there will be massive offers and <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a></strong> would have an advantage in the race to sign him.</p>



<p>However, in a shocking turn of events, an intriguing suitor might appear to convince Mbappe that his future could be somewhere else. Kylian is 24-years old and a huge deal from <strong>Saudi Arabia</strong> would make him seriously reconsider his future.</p>



<p>Right now,&nbsp;<strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong>&nbsp;is still under contract with the French club. That’s why, if&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PSG</a></strong>&nbsp;don’t want to let him go for free, they have to sell him now. Just imagine if he joins players like <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a></strong>, Karim Benzema or <strong>Neymar</strong>. Considering this scenario, a few months ago, <strong>Nasser Al-Khelaifi</strong> made clear Paris Saint-Germain’s stance on the matter.</p>



<p><em>“Our position is very clear. I’m not going to repeat it. If he wants to stay, he stays. But, he has to extend his contract.&nbsp;<strong>We can’t let him leave for free and that’s what he promised to the club.</strong>&nbsp;If he changes his mind, it’s not my problem.”</em></p>

<h2>Will Kylian Mbappe play in Saudi Arabia?</h2>



<p>It’s important to remember that, starting January 1, 2024, <strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong> is free to negotiate with any club worldwide. Although the tradition and winning power of <strong>Real Madrid</strong> seem like the ideal option, the spectacular amount of money he would receive in <strong>Saudi Arabia</strong> could tempt him to try his luck in that country. Emenalo admitted they’ve already made a first try last summer.</p>



<p><em>“It’s never close if it’s not done. If it’s not done, it’s a huge chasm. I can’t say how deep the conversation went, but there was an express interest that if he was ready to come, there was a club ready to make space for him.”</em></p>

<p>The soccer community may be about to witness the start of a new era with a new generation of players set to take center stage from now on. <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ronaldinho">Ronaldinho</a></strong> believes <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong> has what it takes to win the <strong>Ballon d’Or</strong> in the next few years, but the Brazilian legend hopes the French star is still at <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psg">PSG</a></strong> by the time he wins the prize.</p>



<p><em>“<strong>A great player like him can have the chance to win the Ballon d’Or for any team, but as I love PSG, I want him to do it with PSG,</strong>”</em> Dinho told <em>AFP</em> about Mbappe, who he calls <em>“a good friend and a great player.</em>“</p>



<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a></strong> won the Ballon d’Or for a record eighth time in 2023, as he was widely regarded as the best player of the 2022-23 season thanks to his World Cup performance. <strong>But at 36 and in MLS</strong>, the Argentine star knows this may have been his last Ballon d’Or.</p>



<p>“<em>If I dream for the ninth Ballon d’Or? No, no, I stopped thinking about the Ballon d’Or a while ago, and winning it was never a priority for me, especially now that I have achieved everything in my career. <strong>I think it’s the last Ballon d’Or</strong> and I’m happy to have achieved everything and be the player with 8 Ballon d’Ors</em>,” he told <em>L’Equipe</em>.</p>

<h2>Messi thinks Mbappe will have a battle with Haaland</h2>



<p>Mbappe was recently in contention for the Ballon d’Or award, but he <strong>came up third</strong> in the vote behind <strong>Erling Haaland</strong> and Messi. In his acceptance speech, the Inter Miami star predicted both the Frenchman and Norwegian striker to compete for future awards.</p>



<p><em>“<strong>It’s going to be a nice fight between the two of them and between several other younger players around here</strong>. They both deserved it this year</em>,” Messi said.</p>



<p>At 24, Mbappe has already won a World Cup as well as multiple titles with Paris Saint-Germain. Perhaps the only stain in his career is that he <strong>has yet to win a UEFA Champions League trophy</strong>. Haaland, on the other hand, has already tasted the continental glory following a fantastic first year in England, in which he celebrated the treble with Manchester City.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_poll" id="656e4a67f2b571abd7e4abc0" data-title="Will Mbappe win the Ballon d&apos;Or before Haaland?" data-options="2"></div>


<h2>Will Mbappe stay at PSG?</h2>



<p>Ronaldinho’s comments may have to do with the fact that Mbappe’s future at PSG looks up in the air. The striker’s deal at Parc des Princes is <strong>up at the end of the season,</strong> and whether he’ll stay in the French capital beyond June 2024 remains uncertain.</p>



<p>Mbappe appeared to commit to the club only a year ago, when he opted to sign a contract extension instead of joining <strong>Real Madrid</strong> as a free agent. But now he’s once again making headlines for a possible departure.</p>

<p>The <strong>2022 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/world-cup">World Cup</a></strong> final took place nearly a year ago, but soccer fans can remember it like it was yesterday. Especially in Argentina. <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/enzo-fernandez">Enzo Fernandez</a></strong>, for instance, can remember every detail, including his argument with <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong>.</p>



<p>“<em>I remember what he told me, things about the game. There were plays that we were celebrating during the game and <strong>he made signs to us as if he were going to k*ll us. He told us that they were going to win the final</strong>,”</em> Fernandez said about the PSG star, in an interview with <em>ESPN</em>.</p>



<p>Argentina and France delivered <strong>one of the most epic finals</strong> in World Cup history, putting on a show in a six-goal thriller that was decided on penalties. La Albiceleste started winning with goals from Angel Di Maria and <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a></strong>, but Mbappe forced the extra time with a late brace. </p>



<p>In extra time, both Leo and the Frenchman got on the scoresheet again to decide the world champion on penalty kicks. Argentina <strong>ultimately won in the shootout</strong>, securing their third World Cup. Fernandez admitted he thinks about this feat at least once a day, but he still doesn’t know why Mbappe got so angry with him.</p>

<h2>Fernandez’s breakout World Cup</h2>



<p>While they’re the biggest stage for all players, World Cups may also serve as a <strong>platform for those who want to make a name for themselves</strong>. We’ve seen it in 2010 with Mesut Ozil or in 2014 with James Rodriguez or Keylor Navas.</p>



<p>In Qatar 2022, it was Enzo Fernandez who had a breakout tournament. The River Plate product started the competition on the bench, but it didn’t take him long to win a spot in the starting eleven. With Argentina at risk of being eliminated in the second group stage game against Mexico, Fernandez <strong>made an immediate impact coming off the bench in the second half</strong>. From then on, he remained on the lineup for the remainder of the World Cup.</p>



<h2>From loanee to best young player of the World Cup</h2>



<p><em>“I think about the World Cup at least once a day. Something always pops into my head. A memory, something, all the time. <strong>Being world champion changed my life completely. It’s priceless, it’s the eternal and ultimate glory</strong></em>,” said Fernandez.</p>



<p>His journey was quite interesting, having established himself at the Argentine national team in the last months before the World Cup. Besides, only a year before that Fernandez was celebrating a Copa Sudamericana title with Defensa y Justicia, where he was sent on loan by River Plate.</p>

<p>Back at the Millonario, the midfielder proved he had what it took to be part of the first team. Benfica signed Fernandez in July 2022, but the Portuguese giants <strong>couldn’t enjoy his talent for too long</strong>. </p>



<p>By the time the midfielder came back from Qatar (where he was named best Young Player of the World Cup) a number of European giants had already set their sights on him. In the end, <strong>Chelsea had to trigger Fernandez’s €120 million release clause</strong> to acquire his services in January 2023.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong> has publicly confirmed he wants to represent <strong>France</strong> in the <strong>2024 Olympics</strong> at Paris. Undoubtedly, that will be the most important sporting event of the year, where stars like <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a></strong>, Simone Biles, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/novak-djokovic">Novak Djokovic</a></strong> and even <strong>Lionel Messi</strong> could come together.</p>



<p><em>“I want to play in the Olympic Games, but it’s not up to me to decide. I would love to play, of course. If the coach doesn’t want to call me up, I will accept his decision.”</em></p>



<p>Certainly, Kylian Mbappe’s participation in the <strong>Olympic Games</strong> is even a State affair in his country. The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psg">PSG</a></strong> player is the most important French athlete and his presence in the summer event would be a massive boost in terms of television ratings.</p>



<p>Furthermore, Mbappe’s decision could set the stage for a rematch of the epic final of the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/qatar-2022">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a></strong>. This is considering that <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a></strong> might also play for Argentina in pursuit of the gold medal.</p>

<p><strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong> wants a gold medal as he spoke loud and clear about his intentions for 2024. <em>“My employer is the one who decides. It would be a pleasure to play in them (Olympics), but if my employer doesn’t want me to, I will support their decision. I don’t think it will take much time to think about it.

Kylian Mbappe wants to play in the 2024 Olympics with a possible rematch against Lionel Messi looming - Bolavip US

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a></strong> emerged victorious at the <strong>2023 Ballon d’Or</strong> ceremony, extending his record of wins to eight awards. The decision gave a lot to talk about, since <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/erling-haaland">Erling Haaland</a> and <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a></strong> also made a strong case to win the prize.</p>



<p>However, <strong>neither the Norwegian star nor the Frenchman looked upset with the result</strong>. Both players congratulated the Argentine superstar <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/kylian-mbappe-reacts-to-lionel-messi-winning-the-2023-ballon-dor-20231030-BUS-81912.html">on social media</a>, but if there were any doubts about their thoughts, Mbappe made sure to clear them in a press conference with the French national team.</p>



<p>“<em><strong>Lionel Messi had to win the Ballon d’Or, he won the World Cup, he’s one of the greatest in history, if not the greatest for me</strong>,”</em> Mbappe said, via<em> L’Equipe</em>. <em>“<strong>Erling Haaland had a great season, me too, but next to winning a World Cup it doesn’t weigh much.</strong> On the night of 18th December I knew that I had lost the World Cup and the Ballon d’Or too. Leo deserved it.”</em></p>



<h2>Messi’s road to his eighth Ballon d’Or win</h2>



<p>Messi put himself in pole position for the award to the best player of the 2022-23 season by taking Argentina to an epic World Cup victory in Qatar. At 35, the former Barcelona star <strong>put the team on his back</strong> by scoring <strong>seven goals in as many games</strong>, including a brace in the final against France.</p>

<p>Leo stepped up when it mattered the most for La Albiceleste, coming to the rescue in the group stage clash against Mexico and <strong>scoring in every knockout stage game</strong>. In the end, Messi lifted a trophy that was elusive to him throughout his career.</p>

<p>His candidacy to the Ballon d’Or was questioned because of his campaign with <strong>Paris Saint-Germain</strong>. While his World Cup performance was outstanding, Messi didn’t look like the same player when playing for the French side. That said, he still recorded <strong>16 goals along with 16 assists in 32 Ligue 1 games. In addition, Messi scored both four goals and four assists in seven Champions League</strong> matches.</p>



<p>But since PSG fell short in Europe and lacked consistency in the domestic league, Messi’s club season wasn’t so impressive. However, as Mbappe said, many agree that the World Cup matters more than anything else, which is why Messi was widely seen as the best player of the season. The Argentine star <strong>got 462 points in the Ballon d’Or vote,</strong> way more than Haaland’s 357 points and Mbappe’s 270 points.</p>



<h2>Messi believes this was his last Ballon d’Or</h2>



<p>At 36, Messi knows that winning a ninth Ballon d’Or may not be on the cards. At this stage of his career, he already is satisfied with everything he’s accomplished. Besides, he <strong>thinks a new generation of stars</strong>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messis-message-to-mbappe-haaland-after-winning-2023-ballon-dor-20231030-BUS-81894.html">led by Haaland and Mbappe</a>, will take over.</p>

<p>“<em>If I dream for the ninth Ballon d’Or? No, no, I stopped thinking about the Ballon d’Or a while ago, and winning it was never a priority for me, especially now that I have achieved everything in my career. <strong>I think it’s the last Ballon d’Or </strong>and I’m happy to have achieved everything and be the player with 8 Ballon d’Ors,</em>” he told <em>L’Equipe.</em></p>



<p>Messi is enjoying a new chapter of his life in the United States. This year, he shocked the world by joining <strong>Inter Miami</strong>, but looks happy with the decision. His contract with the Herons runs through the 2025 MLS season.</p>
