Kylian Mbappe has acknowledged the existence of a transfer “agreement” at Paris Saint-Germain, but clubs such as Real Madrid and Liverpool are still awaiting clarity. The World Cup-winning French international is now in the final six months of his contract with Parc des Princes. With no extension clause activated yet, Mbappe is free to engage in discussions with clubs outside of Ligue 1.
Mbappe said after helping PSG to Trophee des Champions glory in a 2-0 victory over Toulouse: “I haven’t made my decision. I didn’t make a choice. But in any case, with the agreement I made with the president this summer, whatever my decision we managed to protect all the parties. And to preserve the serenity of the club for the challenges to come. Which is the most important. When will I decide? I do not know.
Real Madrid and Liverpool have both been linked with the 25-year-old forward, PSG’s all-time leading goalscorer. Despite approaching the end of his contract, Mbappe, known for keeping his plans private, has yet to provide definitive answers about his future.
In 2022, I waited because I didn’t know until May. If I know what I’m going to do, I’m not going to hang around. That does not make any sense. But like I said, the most important thing is to win trophies. The team and the group are looking towards that. My situation, no one talks about it within the club. I just want to help win trophies, like I did today.” he added.
Mbappe boasts an impressive record of 234 goals in 283 appearances for PSG, contributing to the team’s success with 13 trophies during his time in the French capital. While long-standing links connect him with a move to Real Madrid, there are speculations that he might consider a challenge in the Premier League in 2024.
