Francis Ngannou Breaks Silence on His ‘Brother’ Kylian Mbappe Inking ‘Scandalous’ $898 Million PSG Deal

The current UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou has had quite the rise to the top. Coming from a humble background, Ngannou has now conquered the MMA world. With immense popularity, Ngannou has forged strong connections. Recently, the heavyweight champion shared his thoughts on Kylian Mbappe signing a new contract with football giants PSG.

On his Instagram, Ngannou shared a photo with football superstar Kylian Mbappe. Ngannou captioned the photo saying, “Congratulations to my brother @k.mbappe for re-signing with Paris @psg ! He’s the present and the future of world soccer for many years to come. #icicestparis #paris”

It is worthy to note that Kylian Mbappe recently renewed his contract with PSG and in this process snubbed footballing giants Real Madrid. The French footballer will pocket $898 Million but he was slammed for inking this scandalous deal.

Mbappe’s move to Real Madrid was speculated for a long time, and the French footballer had issued his interest in playing for the Spanish giants. Real Madrid had also agreed to terms with the French footballer. However, Mbappe stayed with PSG.

LaLiga, in a statement, said that they were going to file a legal complaint on PSG before UEFA. LaLiga President Javier Tebas said that Mbappe renewing his deal with PSG was an insult to football. Tebas has always been critical of PSG under its Qatari owners. The Laliga president also attacked UEFA’s FFP controls and labeled them as inadequate.
