Imre: Mbabee was about to move to Real Madrid
LONDON [Reuters] – Frenchman Chelsea striker Gillian Mbabi was on the verge of moving to Real Madrid in the summer of 2017 when Emre was coach of Paris, the club's manager said.
"Mbabi wanted to move to Real Madrid when he was a player for Monaco," Emri said in remarks published by the Spanish newspaper Marca. "I spoke to him and his father to persuade him to move to Paris Saint-Germain."
"Mbabi wanted to move to Real Madrid and his eyes closed, but in the end we managed to convince him to move to Saint-Germain."
Paris St Germain has issued an official statement Monday confirming that Mbabi is continuing with the team next season and will not go to any other club.
