In this transfer window, PSG has set their sights on selling Kylian Mbappe, as there are concerns that he might depart from the club as a free agent at the conclusion of his contract next summer.
- Mbappe’s current deal expires in 2024, and he has expressed no intention of renewing it.
- PSG is now ready to consider selling him rather than risk losing him without compensation.
- While Real Madrid has shown interest, they are currently hesitant due to the substantial asking price.
PSG Mbappe informed the club of his decision not to extend his contract with the club beyond 2024. In response, PSG conveyed to him that if he chooses to sign a new contract, they would consider the possibility of transferring him to another club to recuperate a transfer fee.
According to sources from 90min, Mbappe, who had recently returned to pre-season training under the new manager Luis Enrique, has been instructed by PSG to stay home instead of joining the team for their tour in Japan.
Mbappe had initially expected to travel with his teammates to Asia, but PSG’s stance has changed, and they are now actively looking to sell him due to the ongoing contract disputes, which have proven to be frustrating for both parties involved.
Real Madrid are Interested in buying Kylian Mbappe from PSG
Real Madrid has been viewed as the primary contenders to secure Mbappe’s signature should he depart from PSG. Previously, there was a near opportunity for him to join Real Madrid on a free transfer when his contract was expiring in 2022, but he had a change of heart and stayed with PSG. However, an immediate transfer to the Santiago Bernabeu might prove challenging.
According to 90min, PSG has set a hefty €200m asking price for Mbappe, a sum that Real Madrid is unwilling to meet. The Spanish club might contemplate pursuing the transfer this summer if the asking price is lowered to around €150m. Nevertheless, it is more probable that they will opt to wait until January to secure a pre-contract agreement with Mbappe, finalizing the terms for his future move.
