Despite his contract expiring at the conclusion of the season, Kylian Mbappe’s future is still uncertain because Paris Saint-Germain is determined to keep the superstar.
The French international may go wherever he wants at the conclusion of the season because he decided not to trigger the one-year extension on his current contract during the summer. The Ligue 1 winners were quite upset over Mbappe’s decision, and as a result, the club prevented him from joining them on their preseason trip, which created a lot of commotion before the season started.
Although Real Madrid has long been the front-runners for the 24-year-old and is expected to be Mbappe’s summer destination, a recent rumor suggests that Liverpool and Chelsea, two Premier League teams, are prepared to make a bold bid for the striker in January.
Chelsea and Liverpool plan to try their luck for Mbappe during the winter transfer window and are prepared to offer the superstar “extremely important contracts,” according to the Italian magazine La Gazzetta dello Sport via Le 10 Sport.
The PSG player has previously been linked to both clubs, but a January transfer is highly unlikely because the French team will not want to lose him in the middle of the campaign.
For this to occur, there would need to be a significant offer, which is difficult to envisage at this time. It’s highly likely that Mbappe will sign a short-term contract or depart for free next summer in order to allow PSG to obtain compensation for the Frenchman, who will eventually don the white of Real Madrid.
