PSG has shown a willingness to entertain the sale of Kylian Mbappe at the offered price, which includes the potential for the striker to earn a massive €700 million (£604 million/$775 million) salary for a year before possibly moving to Real Madrid on a free transfer next summer. Despite his initial intention to see out his contract and leave on a free transfer, Al Hilal, a Saudi Pro League club, has now been granted permission to negotiate with Mbappe.
PSG has been striving to receive a transfer fee for Mbappe during this summer window, even considering the possibility of allowing him to leave on loan. Consequently, it’s no surprise that they have accepted the record-breaking offer for the World Cup winner. The French club had previously presented Mbappe with two options: either sign a new contract with a 10-year offer amounting to €1 billion (£864 million/$1.1 billion) or be sold during this transfer window.
Whether Mbappe will agree to move to Saudi Arabia, even if it’s just for a season, remains uncertain, and the success of the transfer hinges solely on his consent. He has consistently expressed his desire to join Real Madrid.
The resolution of Mbappe’s future is expected to take time, and it is likely that more offers for the superstar will come PSG’s way during this summer transfer period.
