Kylian Mbappé is once again being linked with a move to La Liga. Most probably, he will go to Real Madrid. But there are rumors out of Paris that he could join Barcelona.
That last option seems unlikely, mostly because the club’s finances are assuredly not enough to afford him.
Still, it’s brought up an interesting question: why did the Catalans not sign him back in 2017, when he left AS Monaco and ultimately joined Paris Saint-Germain? It wasn’t due to lack of money, as Neymar’s sale to PSG gave the blaugrana plenty of cash to make it happen.
