The Kylian Mbappé file seems to be at an impasse while PSG imperatively wants to sell its star this summer… unless the captain of the Blues finally decides to extend his contract in Paris.
What if Kylian Mbappé extended to Paris Saint-Germain to everyone’s surprise? For the time being, this scenario seems very unlikely, the French international having made it clear to his management that he did not wish to activate his clause to extend beyond June 2024. In the mind of Kylian Mbappé, everything is clear: the captain of the French team wants to play a final season at PSG before signing free in his future club and pocketing a juicy signing bonus.

A scenario horrified by the Emir of Qatar and by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, who do not imagine for a second that the best player in the world could leave for zero euros in a year. This is how, according to information provided by Fabrizio Romano to That’s Football, a last-ditch attempt will be initiated by Paris Saint-Germain in the coming days. The Parisian club hopes – without really believing it – that Kylian Mbappé agrees to extend his contract with a verbal agreement for a transfer in June 2024.
PSG would like Mbappé to extend and be sold in 2024
A way to let the former Monegasque leave without PSG being harmed with a departure for zero euros. “Paris SG leaders do not understand why Mbappé does not agree to extend his contract and leave in 2024. At PSG, they are ready to sell Mbappé. This week or next week at the latest, we will know more about the player’s future at Real Madrid.” detailed the transfer window specialist. At the same time, the Spanish press has launched the countdown for the signing of the Parisian striker in the Spanish capital.

The AS newspaper even wants to be relatively optimistic about Kylian Mbappé’s arrival at Real Madrid and indicates that the latest events suggest that a “rapid resolution” is possible with a signing of PSG No. 7 with the Merengues. The El Espanol media is on the same wavelength, indicating for its part that the deal between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid could be concluded in the coming weeks. Still, for now, it’s hard to imagine Florentino Pérez paying a big transfer, logically more than 100 million euros, for a player he could have at zero euros in a year. This is the key to this file, blocked for the moment for obvious financial reasons.
