With the impending summer transfer saga surrounding Kylian Mbappe. It seems that his relationship with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is reaching a critical point. Mbappé has chosen not to activate the one-year extension clause in his contract. That means he would become a free agent at the end of the next season.
During the unveiling of new head coach Luis Enrique. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi publicly issued an ultimatum to the 24-year-old forward: either sign a new contract or be sold this summer. However, Mbappé’s intention is to honor his current deal. He has expressed his desire to remain in Paris for the upcoming season. Beyond that, his plans remain uncertain.
According to L’Équipe, Mbappé’s team was surprised by Al-Khelaifi’s decision to make PSG’s position public. But their stance remains unchanged, and the player intends to join the team for pre-season in two weeks.
Mbappé is reportedly puzzled by Al-Khelaifi’s claim of a verbal agreement. That would prevent him from leaving on a free transfer. While there has been no response from Mbappé’s team, it is indicated that privately. He denies the existence of such a promise, despite publicly expressing his willingness to secure a transfer fee for PSG if he were to leave. However, Mbappé is aware that Real Madrid would struggle to meet PSG’s financial demands this summer, leading to a deadlock in the situation.
