The football world has been abuzz with speculations surrounding Kylian Mbappé’s future and Paris Saint-Germain’s transfer activities. Amid the rumors and uncertainty, PSG’s president, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, has finally spoken out about the club’s stance on transfers and the ongoing Mbappé-Real Madrid saga.
Recently, El Chiringuito host Josep Pedrerol suggested that should the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner commit to the Ligue 1 side, it’s time for the La Liga team to explore alternative options.
Nonetheless, during the UEFA Champions League draw, in which PSG ended up in a challenging group, club president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi engaged in a discussion with RMC Sport’s Arthur Perrot regarding Mbappé’s future with the Parisian club.
Nasser Al-Khelaïfi: “Kylian Mbappé is a PSG player. We have very good discussions with him, he is a magnificent player, as a person and as a professional. We have discussed with the rest of his family.”

Al-Khelaïfi remarked, “We still have more than 24 hours. Kylian remains a PSG player. We’ve had highly productive discussions with him, taking into account his exceptional qualities both as an individual and as a professional. We’ve also had conversations with the rest of his family. He went on to say, “There’s still over 24 hours left in the transfer window. We will exert every
effort to accomplish something. If it’s feasible, why not? Otherwise, we are prepared and in a good position.”
Pedrerol also brought attention to the frosty relationship between Real Madrid and PSG. Therefore, the Spanish juggernaut is leaning towards acquiring the winger when he becomes a free agent, avoiding discussions with the Paris-based club altogether.
As a result, Los Blancos are placing their bets on the player becoming a free agent, thus bypassing any financial obligations to PSG. Nonetheless, if the Frenchman opts to extend his contract, it raises an interesting question of whether Real Madrid will cease their pursuit.
As the football world watches and speculates, one thing is certain: the future of Kylian Mbappé will have a significant impact on both PSG and Real Madrid, and the final chapter of this summer saga is yet to be written. Football fans will be watching closely to see how it all unfolds in the coming days and whether Mbappé will remain in the French capital or embark on a new journey in Spain.
