Arsenal will ruin their salary structure if they sign Kylian Mbappe, McCoist has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, signing the French forward wouldn’t win Arsenal the Premier League title, because even if Mbappe is a tremendous player, Manchester City will still have the edge.
McCoist added that he is not sure he is happy with the power Kylian has always had at PSG.
His words, “No. No chance. Not only would you break it, you’d absolutely have to obliterate it and destroy it and once you do that, you know, it’s happening. There’s knocks on the door, ‘He’s on this, I’m only on a quarter of that, I’ve scored this many goals’, etc etc.
No, I wouldn’t [make Arsenal title favourites], I’d still make City.
Listen I love the guy, I think he’s a tremendous player. I’ll never forget watching that World Cup final hat-trick live, one of the highlights of my football [career]. And it’s one of these situations where I’d probably like to see him move.
He’s been there [at PSG] and I’m not sure I’m happy with the power that he’s got there either, remember that story about stakes in the club and he could have a say in this, have a say in that. I think that there’s only one club that he’s got an opportunity to go to, Madrid. I think that’s the only one.”
WOW.
