Mbappe decides to leave PSG

Kylian Mbappe has written to Paris Saint-Germain to tell them he will not extend his contract by one year to 2025.

Mbappe's deal runs until the end of the 2023/24 season and, with PSG unwilling to let the 24-year-old leave for nothing, he could be sold this summer.

Discussions are ongoing about a new PSG contract for Mbappe.

Last month, it was confirmed to Sky Sports News that the three-year deal Mbappe signed last summer was broken down as a two-year contract, with the option of a further year. The extra year is a player option - meaning it was up to Mbappe whether he wanted to trigger it or not.

As it stands, the France international is about to enter the final year of his deal. He was in a similar position last year before PSG convinced him to extend.

If, as expected, Mbappe does not trigger the extra year, he can sign a pre-contract agreement with a club outside of France in January.

"It looks like the annual Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid soap opera has started again," said Sky Sports News' chief reporter Kaveh Solhekol:
