Had PSG not signed Lionel Messi there is no way they would have considered accepting any Real Madrid bid for their best player. The three-club carousel that has landed Messi in Paris and could now put Mbappe in Madrid has two winners and only one loser.

Especially if PSG with Messi and Real Madrid with Mbappe go all the way to the final.
