Big news dropped in the football world earlier this week when Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe informed the club that he will not sign a contract extension and will leave the club at the end of the ongoing campaign. In the aftermath of that bombshell, the player was benched by manager Luis Enrique, and many believe that it is some form of punishment for his decision to leave.
It may be remembered that Mbappe's most recent contract extension keeps him at the Parc des Princes until 2024, with an option to extend for another season. At the start of the ongoing campaign, he and the club became openly at odds with each other after it came to light that he had refused to pick up his option to extend.
