The Morning Standard
|July 25, 2023
SAUDI Arabian domestic side Al Hilal have made a world record offer in order to tempt Kylian Mbappe to move to Asia.
-
A look at all aspects of the potential deal and why PSG are almost resigned to losing him...
Wait... what happened between PSG and Mbappe?
The French talisman has not been a happy camper in the French capital. In short, he doesn't want to sign a new contract (it expires in 2024). So, PSG want to sell him on for a fee in this window rather than losing him for nothing next year.
Okay... has PSG and Mbappe said anything official?
Yes. PSG either want him to sign a new contract to extend his stay or leave this summer. The French captain has gone on record to say he will honour his contract; i.e staying one more year in Paris.
Why Saudi Arabia?
