The Kylian Mbappé file is not settled and the next few weeks will be decisive. The French striker refuses to extend to PSG, and the Emir of Qatar does not intend to see him leave for free in 2024. Enough to raise the tension with Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
This is a case that Paris Saint-Germain would have done well, at a time when the club is embarking on yet another revolution. Kylian Mbappé has officially announced that he has postponed the clause allowing him to extend until 2025. The direct effect of this decision is that the striker with 54 goals in all competitions this season will be free in a year and that the last window to sell it is during this summer transfer window. Two years ago, already in the same situation, Nasser Al-Khelaifi refused all offers from Real Madrid, when Mbappé was already on board. But, this time, the president of PSG does not have a free hand and he will have to obey the orders of Qatar where this file has been taken in hand.
The Emir refuses to see Mbappé leave for zero euros
Even to the point that tired of the hardline attitude of Nasser Al-Khelaifi, the Emir of Qatar would have banged his fist on the table and ordered the Parisian president, to whom he is close, to study the offer from Florentino Perez. Tamim ben Hamad Al Thani refuses the idea of a free start, while Al-Khelaifi is still firmly convinced that he can convince Kylian Mbappé and his mother, Fayza Lamari, to extend another year. To believe Defense Central, this time, the leader of Paris Saint-Germain was unsuccessful against the one who installed him in 2011 at the helm of the French club. And the Spanish media to give details.

” The Emir of Qatar disavowed the president of PSG (….) Al-Thani is fully convinced that Mbappé plans to leave Paris and he does not believe at all that Nasser Al-Khelaifi will change things, so he prefers that he is leaving this summer. And, he asked Al-Khelaifi to listen to Florentino Perez’s offers », specifies Enrique Sanz, journalist of Defense Central. On the side of the president of Real Madrid, we remain very discreet in this operation, the boss of Merengue especially not wanting to get confused with Qatar, since he has personal affairs with the gas state. But, by receiving the support of Tamim ben Hamad Al Thani in the Mbappé operation, Florentino Perez obviously knows that he has scored a decisive point. Whether Nasser Al-Khelaifi likes it or not, there is no longer room for improvisation, and Kylian Mbappé will be transferred for 250 million euros this summer unless he extends his contract at PSG.
