Kylian Mbappé Lottin at it again, makes history for the highest transfer bid from Saudi club Al-Hilal 

For lovers of football,just the mention of Kylian Mbappé  is enough to excite and draw immense attention. The splendid football skills that this man has displayed is something to admire and an inspiration to upcoming players.  But just when we thought we’ve heard enough of Mbappé this season, his towering image has come up again and everyone now talks about the €300m (£259m)  bid he got from Al-Hilal for  a possible transfer.

With 390 appearances and a clean 279 goals to his name,  Mbappé has achieved what many retiring players can only dream to have. But as much as we’re yet to see even better days of Mbappé, his time to leave PSG is nigh. Rumors have it that maybe he will be heading to Real Madrid but this remains to be seen. 

Today, most football fans have not so much to discuss about Mbappé’s skills and performance on the field. Instead, many remain astounded by the revelations that he turned down a record thrashing transfer offer of €300m. 

Soon it’s time to say Goodbye to the talented Kylian Mbappé

Mbappé, the Paris Saint Germain FC forward, has to leave the club. He needs no introduction among lovers of soccer. At only 24 years old, Mbappé has achieved  feats that took legendary players such as Ronaldo, Jey-Jey Okocha and the likes so many years of toil. To say the least, he remains a sensation and just recently, Saudi club Al-Hilal made him a talking point after making a bid of €300m (£259m) for him to join the club.

There’s definitely so much to talk about considering the whopping bid from Al-Hilal which Mbappé  by all indications seems disinterested in pursuing. The French player has reasons for snubbing such a record thrashing offer by the Saudi bid which may not necessarily be clearly understood on the streets.

How do major football clubs sign new players?

As talks of Mbappé’s impending transfer continue to rage, a lot of issues become clear. Not so many people actually know so much about how the legendary players sign contracts to join clubs and what happens when their signings expire and they just have to move out.

What are World Football Transfers and how do they happen?

Football or soccer as some may fondly call it counts among the sports that see a lot of money change hands. As you may be sitting back home watching your favorite player change from one top tier club to the next, know that millions of dollars could have already been transacted. This is over and above the kind of money that moves around on betting. To say the least, football is rich with super talented players like Kylian Mbappé but also club riches. 

Up to this point, you may be asking yourself what has happened in the recent time that so many players from European clubs moved to the Middle East Clubs. It’s this very season that a lot of seasoned and fit footballers have transferred to play in the Middle east football clubs. 

You will see some of your likable players in the European leagues in a couple of coming years. The Summer transfer window has seen the likes of Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante,Edouard Mendy, Ruben Neves and Kalidou Koulibaly all moving to play in the Middle east.

So what does transfers mean in soccer?

As a basic, transfers in football mean an exchange of money for talent. A club that currently has its best player and wishes to shed him or her away will agree with a buying club on a reasonable transfer fee. The player too has to give a nod to the deal or decline it altogether-after all, it’s the player whose morale and motivation will influence the outcome of the deal in the long term. 

Just to get a sense of how highly priced transfer negotiations can become, just do a random search to see what previous players have attracted in transfer bids. Nowonder, the case of Mbappé too hit the headlines for the €300m bid .

It’s never small business when four parties with serious vested interest just sit down to negotiate a workable deal. For the possible transfer of any player, including the much talked about case of Mbappé, four parties sit on it until a “white smoke” appears to signal a deal. 

In the case of Mbappé, he may have the junk of work to do for the final decision to be arrived at but not the sole player. His current club PSG, bidding clubs including Real Madrid, Al-Hilal and possibly an agent have a say. Already, PSG affirmed their commitment to see Mbappé get a new deal to exit the club. 

Kylian Mbappé staring at a free transfer if no deal is signed soon

Word has it that should Mbappé not sign a deal with any preferred team by next Summer, he could be facing a free transfer as PSG appear not bluffing about his eminent need to exit the club.But then what does a free transfer mean and what does it portend for such a high flying player? 

Ordinarily, players sign contracts with a club for a limited period of up to 5 years. After and beyond this time, it’s necessary to have a new contract for a smooth transition. On demand players with high performing skills on the pitch often get clubs chasing them with contracts like hot cake. But in case a contract is fast expiring or has expired without having a contract in hand, the player has to make a move to a new club.

A free transfer means situations where a player moves to a new club without any transfer fees exchanged for it. It would mean that the player just gets on to the next home team without getting a monetary reward or the former club getting a payment. 

Possibly, a clearer picture of free transfers and how they work in day to day situations could be found on goal.com. 

How important is it to monitor players’ transfers for those in sports betting

Sports betting has become a normal everyday attempt at getting rich among so many. Even the remotest of villages in Kenya and other parts of the world don’t miss out on betting. But even as people sign up to the betting sites to make stakes for their all time best teams, the transfers of players when the transfer window opens should be an important signal on how teams perform in the next season.

Any experienced bettor will confide that any football club is as good as its players. The stamina of the players, their attitude to score goals and morale will determine whether the team wins medals or not. 

The transfer of highly important and valued players like Kylian Mbappé, Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante,Edouard Mendy and Ruben Nevesamong others should click the mind of anyone hoping to get betting. The teams that these quintessential players leave may not have the same performance as before or may even get better. It’s all up to you who bets to spend a few weeks at the open of the season to monitor how players do their thing.
