Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappe remains tight-lipped about the tumultuous summer transfer saga that linked him with moves to Real Madrid and the Saudi Pro League. Despite being a longstanding target for Los Blancos, Kylian Mbappe, currently in his seventh season with PSG, is set to become a free agent next summer.

Recent denials by Madrid regarding ongoing negotiations have not diminished speculation, as the World Cup winner is still strongly anticipated to join the 14-time European champions.

During the summer, Mbappe informed PSG via letter that he wouldn’t extend his contract at Parc des Princes, resulting in his exclusion from the club’s tour of Japan and South Korea. Although he missed the first game of the season, the 24-year-old has made a significant impact on the pitch, scoring 13 goals in 11 Ligue 1 games, including a hat-trick in a 3-0 victory over Reims.
