Ligue 1 giants, Paris Saint-Germain have been hit with a major setback as star forward Kylian Mbappé has reportedly informed the club that he will not be triggering the option to extend his current contract until 2025.
This decision means that Mbappé’s deal with PSG is set to expire in June 2024, per L’Équipé.
The French club is now faced with a challenging situation, as they have expressed their firm stance of not allowing Mbappé to leave on a free transfer.
Should PSG wait until next season, Mbappe will leave the club for free. To prevent that, the club may have to sell him now.
Mbappe is widely considered one of the most talented youngsters in the sport. His potential departure from PSG could spark a fierce bidding war among top clubs vying to secure his services.
The 24-year-old, a World Cup winner with France, joined PSG in 2018 for €135m. He scored 29 goals in 34 league appearances for the club last season, helping them to the Ligue 1 title.
