Under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 2024, Kylian Mbappé informed the club on Monday that he was not exercising his option for an additional season. If PSG wants to sell him, it will be this summer or he will leave free in a year.
The tension has suddenly risen on the side of Qatar, since this Monday Kylian Mbappé took his finest pen to announce that he was not exercising his option for one more year of contract, reveals L’Equipe. The vice-world champion had until July 31 to decide unilaterally to extend until 2025, but the PSG number 7 has already warned Nasser Al-Khelaifi that he will not do so. Concretely, this means that Mbappé is linked for another year with the champions of France. And so, if Paris wants to make a paid transfer, it will be during this transfer window and not in a year. Enough to open the doors to an offer from Real Madrid, even if Florentino Perez said this weekend that he did not want to recruit the French player this summer. As for Paris Saint-Germain, once the blow has been taken, we seem to have decided to stay strong.

The sports daily specifies that PSG had not seen this decision by Kylian Mbappé coming and that inevitably the tension is suddenly enormous, even though the transfer window has started for 72 hours. But this time, Nasser Al-Khelaifi has no intention of giving in, even if the stakes are enormous. “ PSG, tired of this situation, showed its firmness on Monday evening, with a very clear deal: either Mbappé gives positive signs for an extension, or he will be sold in the coming weeks. Under no circumstances will Kylian Mbappé leave free “, specifies the media. This bomb announces a huge zone of turbulence within the capital club, which had openly decided to bet everything on Kylian Mbappé. At a time when Paris is looking for a coach, confusion already reigns.
