Kylian Mbappé will leave Paris Saint-Germain next summer but not before – if Kylian Mbappé is to be believed. Within an hour of his camp releasing a statement announcing he had no intention of continuing at the club beyond the end of his contract, which expires in 2024, the France striker responded to reports that he wants to join Real Madrid immediately by dismissing them as “LIES” and insisting: “I have already said that I will continue at PSG next season where I am very happy.”
Mbappé’s statement comes as a direct challenge to the PSG hierarchy, who are determined not to lose him for free in a year’s time, as a standoff develops, the first step in a long summer.
