Mbappe’s clause to extend his current deal from 2024 to 2025 expires at the end of July as he looks to potentially move on from the Ligue 1 champions.
As it stands, PSG remain committed to their plan of selling Mbappe, if he refuses to agree an extension, as Real Madrid wait in the wings.

PSG have made the move to not include Mbappe in the travelling party, as they push for a decisive step, to confirm a decision from his camp.
Mbappe will remain in Paris and step up talks with his representatives to reach a resolution.
Not exactly an unexpected turn of events.
Drop that price baby, drop it like its got!
