PSG star Kylian Mbappe became PSG’s record signing when he decided to snub Real Madrid.

The 23-year-old recently signed a new three-year deal worth £650,000-a-week with the French champions.

But this seems to have gone to Mbappe’s head and looks like, he wants to play a major role not just on the field but also outside of it.

That’s why reports suggest that Mbappe wants to see 12 people leave the French side this summer.

He is seeking a total overhaul and wants manager Mauricio Pochettino and Brazilian star, Neymar out.

Apparently, Mbappe is not happy with other team members like Mauro Icardi, Julian Draxler, Ander Herrera, Idrissa Gueye, Leandro Paredes and Thilo Kehrer.

His other possible targets are Danilo Pereira, Kurzawa, Pablo Sarabia, Juan Bernat, Colin Dagba and Sergio Rico.

Mbappe believes they are not on his level and are dragging the team down.

What about Neymar?

The Qatari board of the club are tired of the Brazilian’s attitude.

He has gone down in the pecking order.

From being a main protagonist, he has seen his status downgraded to a supporting role, under Pochettino.

Due to Neymar’s lack of contribution, the relationship between Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, has worsened.

There are rumours that Mbappe has been speaking about Neymar behind his back.

This means a total breakdown in relations between the two stars.

Even though PSG might be willing to sell Neymar, it will be a difficult task to find him a buyer.

The main reason is Neymar’s high wage.

He currently earns around four million euros a month at Paris.

The big clubs who can afford his wages – Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have no interest in signing him.

Moreover, Neymar is now used to Paris and doesn’t want to leave the city.

The only unlikely possibility is Newcastle United who could spring a surprise by making a move for Neymar.

Pochettino’s future

Poch’s reign has been termed as a failure.

He has failed to progress in the Champions League despite the presence of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe.

Clearly he has been made a scapegoat but is already facing intense scrutiny about his future, even though he is under contract until the end of next season.

Pochettino has made the right sounds.

The 50-year-old said, “I want to stay 100 percent here.”

“I have one more year left on my contract. The challenges are there and it motivates any coach.”

“PSG are a club with ambition. The big disappointment is the Champions League elimination because of the desire of the people.”

But if Mbappe has his way, Pochettino’s days could be numbered.

The only thing that could be saving Pochettino is the lack of replacements.

Mbappe was keen to have Zidane as the manager but the French icon refused.

It’s sad that despite leading PSG to the Ligue 1 title, the former Tottenham boss could still get the boot.

Georgina Rodriguez made a huge claim on the future of her husband and star player, Cristiano Ronaldo, in Football. In a brief interaction with a host recently, Rodriguez was asked about the time left for Cristiano to make an impact at the highest level. Georgina looked honest in her approach to the question of the host and claimed something the fans would not love to hear.

Georgina claimed that the Portugal star has maybe one year more from him at the highest level. She felt that Ronaldo might play two more years before retiring and not more than that. She was however not sure if he would play for just one or two years and added that the Al Nassr star could also play more than that.

“Cristiano one more year, then it’s over. Maybe two, I don’t know,” said Rodriguez in the little chat she had with the host. The video has gone viral on X and the fans have started sharing it on different platforms. Some of the fans feel that Georgina might be right, while others feel that she could be wrong, given the fitness and longevity of the star player.

Legacy of Cristiano Ronaldo

On the 5th of February, Ronaldo celebrated his 39th birthday. He is currently one of the oldest players in the world. In the past, players at this age would have retired way back. But the fitness and consistency of Ronaldo make him play the sport as long as he wishes. In his career so far, Ronaldo has won many major leagues for Portugal and league teams like Real Madrid, Al Nassr, and Manchester United.

With United, Portugal won some major leagues like the FA Cup and the Champions League. With Real Madrid, the 39-year-old won the leagues like the UCL, Copa Del Rey and La Liga. He won it three consecutive times for Real Madrid. For Portugal, Cristiano had a huge contribution to Portugal. He has the most number of appearances and goals for an international team and won the Euro 2016 with Portugal.

Jude Bellingham shown Red Card (Image Credit: Twitter)

England and Real Madrid player Jude Bellingham was slapped with a Red Card during the La Liga game against Valencia. In the game, the home team, Valencia was leading by 2-0 after 30 minutes before Madrid scored in the injury time of the first half. Vinicius Junior opened the scoring for Madrid while Hugo Duro (27′) and Roman Yaremchuk (30′) scored a goal each.

In the 76th minute, Junior scored an equalizer to keep the team in the game. However, in the injury time of the second half, Bellingham was given a red card as he argued with the referee against calling it a full-time before he could score. In reply, the match official decided to slap the England international with a Red Card. The team coach Carlo Ancelotti wasn’t happy with the verdict as the Three Lions player was making a pass at the time.

Jude Bellingham verbally abusing officials and other footballers at the slightest provocation needs to be talked about more. It’s embarrassing he gets applauded by Real Madrid Fans.

“I think what’s just happened is unprecedented. It’s never happened to me,” Ancelotti told reporters.

“We had possession of the ball and the match should have been finished when Valencia had the ball.

“What bothers us is the red card for Bellingham because he didn’t say anything insulting. He was frustrated of course,” said Ancelotti, adding that Bellingham had used a common English swearword when telling the referee it was a goal.

We are annoyed with Jude Bellingham’s Red Card: Carlo Ancelotti

“We were annoyed with Bellingham’s red card. He didn’t say any insults. He said in English ‘it’s a f—ing goal,’ but he was just saying what we were all thinking … [The referee] allowed play to continue. I think he made a mistake.”

“[Bellingham] was clear in what he said,” Ancelotti added. “He was quite vehement [in his reaction] but that’s normal, after what happened. It wasn’t an insult, not at all.”
