Zapping Our Mondial TOP 10: The most profitable transfers in history
Paul Pogba does not often speak but in the extensive interview he gave to Le Figaro yesterday, the midfielder of Manchester United and the France team did not fail to discuss his situation but also his future. With a rather enticing prospect when the question of a future with Kylian Mbappé in the same jersey was posed to him. ” Why not ? It’s always good to play with teammates in the France team and in the club, ”said La Pioche.

Mbappé’s refusal to participate in certain commercial operations of the FFFa dispute that has dragged on for some time now, has highlighted the requirements of the French striker in terms of image management.

And precisely, the daily Marca ensures that this subject is one of the big nodes of the negotiations between Mbappé and the merengue club. “Mbappé’s image rights are also one of the central and most complex issues in the conversations between Real Madrid and the player’s agents”, assures Marca, who recalls that it is customary for Madrid players to give up 50% of their image rights at the club.

While Paul Pogba has opened the door to a common future with Kylian Mbappé, the latter has awakened a problem that could impact Real Madrid. Indeed, the question of the management of its image is also a sensitive subject in Spain.
