Kylian Mbappe Set to Leave PSG for Real Madrid – Squad Snub and Sale Confirmed
In a surprising turn of events, Kylian Mbappe has been omitted from Paris Saint-Germain’s (PSG) squad for their pre-season tour of Japan. Reports suggest that Mbappe has informed PSG that he will not be re-signing with the club, fueling speculation about his future.
According to L’Equipe, PSG believes that the 24-year-old sensation has already secured a deal to join Real Madrid on a free transfer at the end of the upcoming season. As a result, PSG has made the decision to make Mbappe available for interested buyers, with Real Madrid emerging as the favorites to secure his services.
Mbappe, who has repeatedly expressed his intention to leave PSG after his current contract expires next summer, is a top target for a number of clubs. The French club is determined not to lose their star player for free and is now hoping to recoup a significant portion of the €180 million (£166m/$194m) they invested in him back in 2017.
Real Madrid’s interest in Mbappe is unsurprising, considering their lack of a recognized striker following Karim Benzema’s departure. However, The Athletic reports that several other clubs have also expressed interest in acquiring the World Cup winner’s signature.
As PSG prepares to field offers for Mbappe, it seems increasingly likely that he will be plying his trade away from the Parc des Princes next season. The French giants are eager to avoid losing their prized asset without any compensation and will be looking to secure a lucrative transfer deal.
This latest development in the ongoing Mbappe saga has undoubtedly sent shockwaves through the footballing world. Fans and pundits are now eagerly waiting to see where the talented forward will end up and how his departure will impact both PSG and Real Madrid.
As the Mbappe transfer saga unfolds, football enthusiasts are also engaged in an online poll, voting for their best signing of the current transfer window. The options include Jude Bellingham, Christopher Nkunku, Dominik Szoboszlai, Mason Mount, Sandro Tonali, and an option for “Other”. The results of the poll will be announced soon, adding further excitement to the already intense world of football transfers.
