Kylian Mbappe seems to sign a new contract at Paris Saint-Germain on the account that he may leave the next summer.
Mbappe’s future has dominated this summer’s transfer window, but it now appears that the 24-year-old attacker is going to stay at PSG after all, with a contract offer on the table that would mean he is certain to leave for a fee in 2024.
In June Mbappe told PSG that he didn’t want to extend his current contract, which elapses next summer. Unwilling to let the Frenchman leave for free, PSG accepted a would-be record £259 million ($328.4m) offer from Saudi club Al-Hilal. When Mbappe rejected the move, the Ligue 1 giants excluded him from their pre-season preparations.
Now, after holding constructive talks with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi, Mbappe is set to sign a one-year deal until 2025, with a clause guaranteeing that he can be sold in 2024, according to FootMercarto. That way, PSG will be able to bring in some sort of transfer fee and the player will get his wish to move on.
It’s widely believed that Mbappe wants to join The Real Madrid next summer. The Spanish giants have not signed a replacement for Karim Benzema so are likely to move for Mbappe next year.
On the other hand, it seems like a free transfer is going to be off the charts.
