Kylian Mbappé, who informed PSG that he would not extend until 2025, expressed the wish to join Real Madrid this summer. This could actually happen in the next few weeks.
The bomb is dropped and will liven up the summer transfer window: Kylian Mbappé wants to join Real Madrid. A step away from the merengue club a year ago, before finally opting for an extension to Paris Saint-Germain, the captain of the French team wishes this time to leave for Spain. According to information from the Parisian, Kylian Mbappé has made his decision and there is little chance – if any – that he will go back on it.
🚨🚨 Kylian Mbappé statement to AFP.
“I have NEVER discussed any contract renewal with PSG”.
“The board has been informed since July 15th, 2022 of my decision not to extend beyond 2024 — and the letter sent was only meant to confirm what I already told them”. pic.twitter.com/ggaO5ZPfqm

The French international realized that he was no longer in the ideal place to collect collective and individual trophies. Disappointed with the promises not kept by PSG at the time of its extension and in particular about a transfer window which he considers very disappointing last summer, he wishes to leave and will not go back. Frustrated to see a player of his generation pass him in the race for the Ballon d’Or in the person of Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé believes that it is time to realize his childhood dream by signing for Real Madrid.
PSG opens the door to the departure of Kylian Mbappé
“For the first time since 2017, all the conditions are met to witness the end clap between the French championship, PSG in particular, and Kylian Mbappé” writes the Ile-de-France newspaper. And for good reason, for the first time since his arrival from AS Monaco, Mbappé will not be retained by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi. The president of Paris Saint-Germain is not closed to the sale of his jewel, as it is unthinkable for him to see him go for zero in a year.

Kylian Mbappé and PSG, the story seems well and truly over and Karim Benzema is no stranger to it because according to Le Parisien, the departure of the Real Madrid striker to Saudi Arabia was decisive in Mbappé’s desire to join this summer the Spanish capital. The 25-year-old tricolor international realized that it was now or never, Real being in absolute need of recruiting a striker to compensate for the departure of “Nueve”. We will now have to agree on the price of Kylian Mbappé and remain vigilant against the possible offensive of an English cador for Real Madrid. But let it be said, Real and Mbappé have never been so close.
