Kylian Mbappe told PSG in June he had no intention of signing contract extension and is now prepared to let it run down; Mbappe’s current deal expires in 2024 and PSG say he must extend or be sold this summer; PSG only want players committed to club on tour and have left Mbappe at home
Kylian Mbappe is prepared to sit out an entire season and leave Paris St-Germain on a free next summer after the club put him up for sale on Friday.
Mbappe was not included in the squad for PSG’s pre-season tour to Japan and South Korea, which departs on Saturday, with the club making it clear they only want players on the tour who are committed, want to be at the club and that no player is more important than the club.
However, Mbappe’s immediate reaction to that decision is that he is ready to sit on the bench and not play at PSG until his contract runs out next summer.
Being France captain and with the Euros coming up next summer doesn’t alter his thinking.
He is willing to dig his heels in and sacrifice a season and there is nothing PSG can do about it.
