After rejecting Arsenal; Kylian Mbappe drops huge Arsenal transfer hint with clear Premier League title ambitions
Kylian Mbappe’s latest social media post may be the last hint of a move to the Premier League during the January transfer window. The French footballer has become one of the biggest stars in football over the last five years.
This has generated a lot of interest and speculation about transfers in the next transfer window. In recent summers, there have been rumors that Mbappe would leave the French capital, but in the end he signed a brand new contract.
This pattern could repeat itself with just six months left on his current contract, meaning the teams could start discussing a pre-contract this month. Among those linked with Arsenal are Real Madrid and Premier League rivals Liverpool.
But the 25-year-old has so far quickly dismissed any talk of a deal elsewhere, so his position remains wide open. “I haven’t decided on my future yet. I haven’t decided,” he said when asked about his future. “Nobody talks about my position within the club, it’s not a topic.”
But that won’t stop the rumors from continuing, which could mean his situation will be monitored many times over in the coming months. The possibility of Arsenal landing the striker seems unlikely due to the large cost of his salary and signing bonuses without even paying a transfer fee.
However, this does not mean it cannot happen, as the Gunners need to improve their attacking line and the options available to them. Mbappe may have hinted at a transfer and his ambitions by posting on social media, which could lead to a transfer in the coming months.
He posted a photo of himself wearing the Trophee Des Champions, the French equivalent of the Community Shield, and wrote: “Hungry for more.” This suggests that if a transfer is in sight, it should include a promise of trophies in the future, including a Premier League title.
Whether Arsenal will be able to guarantee this is not yet known, but it could prove to be a key decision-making factor in the final months of his contract.
