On Thursday afternoon, February 15, international media began to confirm that the French striker Kylian Mbappé, would have personally communicated to Nasser Al Khelaifi, president of Paris Saint-Germain, his decision to leave the club at the end of the 2023-2024 season.

According to information shared by journalist Fabrizio Romano, the striker, who won the World Cup with France in 2018, made the decision not to enforce the €100 million renewal clause he had with PSG. With this and taking into account Mbappé’s renewal in 2022, the 25-year-old will be a free agent as of June of this 2024, which allows him to negotiate with any club his signature for the next campaign.

According to reports from the European soccer insider, Kylian Mbappé would have advanced talks to join Real Madrid from next season, which could be made official in the following months. So far, the Spanish soccer team is considered to be the team with the most progress in the negotiations for the former Monaco player, so his arrival at Real Madrid could be made official in the coming months. However, it has been reported that Premier League clubs such as Liverpool, Manchester United and even Barcelona of Spain, have sounded out the possible arrival of the Frenchman for the next campaign.
