According to the Spanish newspaper “AS”, the departure of the French national team captain from Paris Saint-Germain will lead to a decrease in the value of the French League television broadcast package by 20 percent.
As soon as Mbappe stayed in Paris, he would bring in $150 million in television broadcast fees alone.
French League broadcasting had already suffered a strong blow in 2020, when Mediapro, after committing to pay a historic figure of $858 million per season, announced that it would terminate the agreement due to the losses it incurred during the Corona pandemic.
Both the league and French football as a whole are extremely concerned about Kylian Mbappé’s departure, with the French league expected to be at risk of the price of the rights falling significantly.
Mbappé effect
According to an economic study conducted by Circle Strategy, Mbappé boosted Paris Saint-Germain’s shirt sales by up to 40 percent, ticket revenue by up to 67 percent, and broadcast rights by up to €80 million during his time at Paris Saint-Germain.
Because of these reinforcements, the club’s income increased by an estimated 175 percent, bringing the club’s value from 800 million euros to 4 million euros. One billion euros.
Mbappé’s presence at the club was also an attraction for other big names.
Soft power
Paris Saint-Germain’s popularity has risen on the world stage despite the club never winning a European title, and Mbappe has become a brand ambassador for Paris Saint-Germain.
His power and influence cannot be underestimated, as strategic analysts have confirmed that Mbappe has created an unprecedented economic impact for both Paris Saint-Germain, the entire French League and French football.
His huge contract with the club has created a net worth of around €40 million, which is very lucrative by all margins.
Most influential in France
The striker was named “the most influential Frenchman in the world” by the American magazine Time.
Some journalists say that Mbappe has dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron once a month, and the footballer certainly proved to be an important government asset, when he helped with the vaccination campaign against the Corona virus.
“He risked social engagement for the sake of vaccination, against violence, and to connect with the feelings of the country’s citiz
ens,” Macron said in an interview with L’Equipe in 2022. “Kylian Mbappe has a rare awareness of his role, the weight of his statements and the strength of his actions.”
It is difficult to know whether Mbappe’s tweet was…
Even at the end of June last year, Mbappe called on residents to calm down and ease the riots, and it is not known whether his tweet had a direct impact in calming the riots, or whether it was a coincidence that the police reported a decline in violence in the following days.
