Kylian Mbappé will not exercise the one-year option on his contract with PSG, franceinfo learned on Monday June 12 from the PSG entourage, confirming information from L’Equipe. The Parisian club threatens to sell him this summer without waiting for the end of his contract in the summer of 2024.
The Parisian striker’s contract provided for a one-year extension option until June 30, 2025. It is this option that the international does not wish to activate. If this wish is validated, PSG will have to let him leave for free, without any transfer compensation.
Real Madrid are in the running
If Kylian Mbappé decides not to activate his one more year in Paris, until 2025, PSG is very clear: he will not let his star striker leave for free. The hypothesis of a sale of the captain of the Blues this summer is on the table, according to those around the club. Real Madrid in particular is in the running after the departure of Ballon d’Or Karim Benzema. For its part, PSG ensures that the club is not built around a single player, whether Kylian Mbappé or another player. This is one of the hallmarks of his new policy.
According to information from the sports department of Radio France, Kylian Mbappé sent his letter to the media announcing his desire not to lift this one-year option from his contract before sending it to PSG, an act deemed strange by the Paris club. PSG are annoyed with the method used, especially since discussions are underway with the player for long-term projects. Anyway, Kylian is with the club until 2024.
