Real Madrid’s pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe is definitely not over after new details emerged about the new contract Mbappe signed with PSG.
Mbappe was very close to joining Real Madrid last summer before opting to extend his stay at PSG by signing a three year contract until 2025.
However, according to The Sun, it has now emerged that Mbappe actually signed a two year contract with PSG, with Mbappe alone having the option to extend it for another year if he chooses.
If he signals he will not extend, PSG will have to look to sell next summer or see their £150million-plus rated striker leave for nothing 12 months later.
Selling Mbappe for a huge fee would also end of any concerns over PSG’s ability to meet Uefa’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules.
And it would enable the Ligue 1 champions to meet new financial sustainability regulations that will begin to be calculated from January.
