Paris Saint Germain (PSG) have decided to listen to the offers for their star player Kylian Mbappe who informed the club that he will not renew his contract next year.
Mbappe, 24, who renewed with the French club in 2022 for two years with an option to extend the contract till 2025, will not trigger the option for a contract extension.
According to a reliable journalist Julien Laurens, PSG will listen to the offers for a fee of around €150M,.
Mbappe in an official statement has stated that he has not asked the club to sell him but just confirmed that he will not renew for another year.
"Kylian Mbappe has NOT demanded that the club sells him this summer, and has only confirmed to the club that he will NOT trigger a contract extension," an official statement by Mbappe’s entourage.
"The board has been informed since July 15th, 2022 of my decision not to extend beyond 2024, and the letter sent was only meant to confirm what I already told them."
As per the sources, Mbappe only wants to sign for Los Blancos and PSG, who blocked his move to the Spanish Capital in the summer of 2021, will not stand in his way.
It must be noted that the 34-time Spanish champions tried to sign Mbappe in summer 2021 but their €200m bid was rejected by the French club as they considered the World Cup winner “untouchable”.
Earlier, Mbappe decided against using the option of a one-year extension in his contract when it expires in June next year, L'Equipe reported on Monday (June 12).
The 24-year-old conveyed his decision to the club in an official letter, which could force PSG to sell him this summer in order to avoid losing him for free next year.
The forward would be free to negotiate and sign a pre-contract agreement with a new club from January should he decide to see out the remaining year of his deal at PSG.
Real Madrid have already announced the signings of Fran Garcia and Brahim Diaz and will announce Jude Bellingham at any moment as his signing was completed days ago.
Garcia was presented as a Madrid player on Monday (June 12) while Brahim was re-presented on Tuesday (June 13).
