Ex-Barcelona director Javier Bordas has revealed why Paris Saint-Germain striker, Kylian Mbappe previously did not agree to join Real Madrid.
Bordas at that overlooked some significant transfers for Barca, such as Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, Luis Suarez and more.
According to Javier, he contacted Mbappe’s agent Mino Raiola about signing Mbappe for Barca.
Bordas said that Mbappe did not agree to join Barcelona because of his compatriot Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale, and Cristiano Ronaldo’s presence.
According to Barca Universe, Javier said “It would have cost €100 million. We wanted a replacement for Neymar and Mbappe offered himself.
“He did not want to move to Real Madrid because of the presence of the BBC (Benzema, Bale, Cristiano) trio, but Barcelona preferred Dembele, and then Coutinho.”
