MBAPPE TO STAY AT PSG, EXPECTED TO EXTEND CONTRACT TILL 2025
Kylian Mbappe will play for Paris Saint-Germain this season and is expected to sign a contract extension until 2025, according to club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
The France international trained with the first team on Sunday after he indicated he is committed to the club and the institution.
Al-Khelaifi, who visited the squad at the training ground on Sunday morning told the PSG players: “Kylian is committed to PSG. Kylian is back”
PSG later said in a social media post: “Following very constructive and positive discussions between Paris Saint-Germain and Kylian Mbappe before the PSG – Lorient game, the player has been reinstated into the first team training squad this morning.”
This comes after Mbappe had previously told PSG he will not leave the club under any circumstances during this window and was prepared to sit out the entire season.
Mbappe’s current deal expires in 2024 and PSG had accepted a £258m bid from Al Hilal last month, but the forward rejected the one-year move to Saudi Arabia.
