According to Bain sports reporter Tancredi Palmeri, Mbape's agent once disclosed that the price Mbape sold to Barcelona during the Monaco period has been set at 155 million euros, but Barcelona finally withdrew the offer.
In the first round of the Champions League 1/8 final, which ended in the early morning of this morning, Paris beat Barcelona 4-1 away from home. The 22-year-old Mbape scored a hat trick to shine in the Nou Camp.
After the game, Tancredi Palmeri, a Bain sports reporter, recalled the old story. He said on his personal social media that Mbape's agent at that time disclosed in an interview with Spanish radio that the price Mbape sold to Barcelona in Monaco had been determined to be 155 million euros, but Barcelona finally withdrew its offer, and some management also mocked the deal.
Mbape finally joined Paris on loan in the summer of 2017 and was bought out a year later.
