Kylian Mbappé’s future at Paris Saint-Germain is highly uncertain.
Recently, the world star announced that he does not intend to activate his option year, which means that his contract expires already next summer, and then he can sign for a new club as a bossman. However, PSG has no plans to lose the 24-year-old for free, but has instead set an ultimatum: extend the contract – or be sold already this summer.
However, French media claim that Mbappé wants to remain at PSG beyond next season in order not to miss out on the multi-million dollar loyalty bonuses included in the contract, to then sign for Real Madrid next summer.
Messy, to say the least. And now there are reports that claim that the Frenchman has not only stirred up the emotions of people in the club’s management, but also in PSG’s dressing room.
At the beginning of June, Mbappé did a well-known interview with France Football Magazine. Among other things, the 24-year-old then claimed that he is unfairly criticized because it is “harder to impress when you play in Ligue 1”. In addition, he was critical of how PSG signed in recent years, while expressing that PSG is a “divided club” that has hit the ceiling in the Champions League.
Words that have not been well received by the other players in the dressing room.
RMC Sport said on Saturday that six PSG players – including two new signings – have approached club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi to complain about Mbappé’s interview, which the player considers “an insult to the club”. According to the radio channel, the players must have been supported by Al-Khelaifi, who himself was “shocked” and considered that Mbappé’s statement was disrespectful to the other players.
It remains to be seen what the aftermath will be. In any case, it is clear that the question of Kylian Mbappé will continue to be rewritten for quite some time to come.
