If Kylian Mbappé “wants to stay, we have to sign a new contract, we cannot let one of the best players in the world go for free”, warned Wednesday the president of Paris SG, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, during the press conference of the new trainer Luis Enrique. “He said himself ‘I will never leave for free’. If someone changed their mind, it’s not my fault. We don’t want to let one of the best players in the world leave for free, that’s very clear, ”insisted the leader to the media gathered at the capital club’s new training center in Poissy (Yvelines). The French international striker, at the club since 2017, has indicated that he wishes to honor his contract until 2024 before a probable departure. In this case, the Parisian club would not recover any transfer compensation. Mbappé, who had reached the end of his contract, extended to everyone’s surprise in May 2022 at PSG for two seasons plus an additional one, an option he is free to activate by July 31. The star striker has indicated his wish not to. PSG favors two options: either sell the 2018 world champion and 2022 vice-world champion, recruited in Monaco in 2017 for 180 million euros, this summer to recover transfer compensation, or convince him to extend his contract. beyond 2024.
