Kylian Mbappe will not agree to a one-year contract extension with Paris Saint-Germain when Real Madrid re-interest in the striker.
Kylian Mbappe is said to have had a verbal agreement to join Real Madrid last season. The striker had previously hinted at a move to the Spanish capital after an interview suggested he was open to leaving France.
However, that move did not materialize as Mbappe committed his future to the French capital. The 24-year-old born star signed a new three-year deal in Paris last May, although the final year of that contract is an extension dependent on the player.
That development comes less than a year after the French club turned down a world-record transfer offer from Los Blancos to Mbappe, whose contract had previously expired at the Parc des Princes last June. . If they do not agree to activate the one-year option to renew their contract, the 2018 World Cup champion will be out of contract next summer.
According to AS reports, Real will re-interest in Mbappe but they are not willing to pay any transfer fee for the French-class striker. They will wait until the time when they can ‘officially’ talk to Mbappe in January 2024, information confirmed by Marca.
Mirror Football exclusively reports that PSG will allow Mbappe to leave in the future if a suitable offer is received. However, they will risk losing Mbappe as a free agent this summer because of the pillar’s contract status.
Mbappe came under a lot of political pressure to stay in the French capital last year, including from French president Emmanuel Macron, who contacted the striker to convince him not to join Real Madrid. It remains to be seen how PSG will make their next offer, but Lionel Messi and Neymar are said to have no long-term futures at the club. That may be a factor that makes the former AS Monaco player not feel excited to stay at the host team.
Los Blancos will make any move in 2024 when they are now in a much better position than before. In addition, Mbappe’s departure will depend on convincing words from Real, although it was previously reported that the La Liga club is no longer interested in the number 7. Accordingly, the Bernabeu team is appreciating it. Vinicius Junior and with the Brazilian star, the former Champions League king was less interested in the 2022 World Cup runner-up.
Mbappe previously refused to commit his future to PSG after offers to leave: ” At the moment, my eyes are on the second World Cup. What happens after that is unknown “.
It was not until March that he mentioned the issue again. The French star has now been told by L’Equipe that he does not want to continue with his contract option until 2025, meaning his contract expires next summer. It points to the tension between the former AS Monaco star and the club in the context that Mbappe is very hopeful to have experience in another environment.
