Despite having signed a new contract just a year ago, Kylian Mbappe is now potentially on the cusp of leaving Paris Saint-Germain in the upcoming summer transfer window. Despite the recent contract extension, the French team’s captain has chosen not to prolong his tenure for another year, presenting PSG with a pivotal choice: either sell him now or let him depart as a free agent next year when his contract terminates in 2024.
While Real Madrid stands out as a probable destination, there is also the possibility of interest from Premier League clubs and teams outside of Europe. On August 25, an offer from PSG to Mbappe was declined, even though he has rejoined the Parc des Princes squad.
According to Marca, the offer was extended to him on Wednesday, and the club’s proprietors have entrusted the decision to chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi. Al-Khelaifi is now faced with the task of determining whether to persist in convincing Mbappe to stay or to initiate his sale, given that Mbappe’s current contract will conclude in 2024.

August 24: Statement from Carlo Ancelotti Carlo Ancelotti
The manager of Real Madrid, has definitively rejected the notion of a last-minute move for Mbappe within the current month. In response to inquiries about the potential acquisition of the PSG superstar during a press conference, the Italian coach emphatically stated, “No, I firmly rule it out, 100%. Our squad is settled, and our players are fully concentrated on the upcoming season.”
August 22: Possibility Remains Reports originating from Spain propose that the prospect of Real Madrid making a final bid to secure Mbappe’s signing this month should not be completely dismissed. The Spanish football powerhouse is yet to secure the high-profile addition they were targeting as a replacement for Karim Benzema. However, acquiring the PSG sensation this summer would require a substantial financial commitment surpassing £210 million.
Nevertheless, the likelihood of such a transfer seems slim, as the French captain is more inclined to either extend his contract with the Ligue 1 champions or depart as a free agent in 2024.
The PSG manager, has lauded Mbappe’s mental state after the striker’s return to training. The French player is set to take part in PSG’s upcoming Ligue 1 match against Toulouse on Saturday. Enrique remarked, “Based on my observations during training, Mbappe is in exceptional form. He showcases great determination and a highly positive mindset. I’m truly delighted to have a world-class player like Kylian.”
As per reports from French outlet Foot Mercato, PSG has recently presented a fresh contract offer to Mbappe, which includes an unusual condition. Reportedly, the 24-year-old is open to extending his contract with PSG until 2025, contingent upon a stipulation that mandates his sale in the subsequent summer.
This unique provision aims to ensure that Les Parisiens secure a reasonable transfer fee for their pivotal player, while also granting Mbappe the opportunity to realize his ambition of joining Real Madrid.
