REVEALED: Mbappe’s MASSIVE PSG exit demand
Kylian Mbappe is reportedly insisting on an eye-watering contract from any club wanting to sign him from PSG this summer.
The France superstar, 24, is said to have told PSG he will not trigger the option of an extra year when his contract expires next summer.

Unsurprisingly, Mbappe continues to be linked with Real Madrid – who tried to sign the lightning-fast forward last year.

Right now, though, MARCA claim that Mbappe will demand a package worth a whopping €240m a year in order to leave PSG this window.

PSG find themselves in an Mbappe-shaped muddle yet again
This is the third summer running that Mbappe’s future has been up in the air – and PSG may well have a huge decision to make in the coming weeks.
It goes without saying that Les Parisiens will not want to sell their star man – who finished as Ligue 1 top scorer for the fifth straight season in 2022/23 – but holding onto him could effectively cost them well in excess of €100m.
Our in-house Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) model currently rates Mbappe at €136m – but come January, he will be able to negotiate a free transfer next summer to a club outside France.
That’s assuming that he has indeed told PSG that he won’t be staying beyond the end of next season…
