Real Madrid suffer unexpected Kylian Mbappe transfer blow

Kylian Mbappe’s future has been a topic of major discussion once again this summer. It has emerged that the French World Cup winner does not want to extend his current deal with Paris Saint-Germain, which runs until the summer of 2024. That has put the Ligue 1 champions in a difficult position while Real Madrid have been linked with a move as expected.

PSG have also made it clear that they either want Mbappe to put pen on paper on an extension or leave the club this summer. Thus, the situation is very interesting and let’s see how things play out.

Following comments from both parties in recent days, it was starting to look like a summer transfer exit was closer than ever. But now, it looks like no door has been closed yet and PSG will still try to agree a contract extension with Mbappe.

As reported by RMC Sport, the club leaders want to move forward with pragmatism and will do everything to obtain an extension until 2025. PSG are open to all options to extend Mbappe’s contract.

Real Madrid suffer unexpected Mbappe transfer blow

Thus, it will be very interesting to see how things turn out in the Mbappe transfer saga over the coming months and weeks. If there is one thing we have learned over the years, it is that nothing should ever be ruled, even the Frenchman potentially signing an extension with PSG.

For the time being, his exit from the club look almost inevitable. And in that scenario, his most likely destination appears to be Real Madrid, even though Liverpool and Arsenal have been linked with Mbappe in recent weeks as well.

Mbappe could be the player to replace Karim Benzema up top as well as the face of Real Madrid. But for the time being, we can only wait and watch how things play out between the World Cup winner and PSG.
