The soap opera of the summer seems to be nearing its end. After weeks of news, rumors, letters and numerous messages from one side to the other, one thing is clear: PSG want to move on from Kylian Mbappe this summer.
The French team has adopted a clear position that has been reiterated on more than one occasion: “We only want players who want to stay at the club.”
These words have been backed up by actions, such as removing the French striker from the first team and not including him in the tour of Japan.
This marked a before and after in the negotiation and confirmed Mbappe‘s options: sign a new deal or be sold.

First offers are in
With a contract extension practically ruled out, leaders at the French club are only contemplating a sale this summer that would provide a significant amount of money in the club’s coffers.
As a result, for the first time, they are open to offers for the player.
As reported by MARCA, PSG received a bid for the French striker from Al-Hilal, who offered 330 million euros to sign the player and 700 million euros in terms of salary for just one year. It’s since been rejected by the player.
Mbappe joked on Twitter with his friend Giannis Antetokounmpo about the possibility of playing in Arabia.
In the meantime, he continues to train in Paris with the team’s outcasts.
His public statements have always followed the same lines: finish his contract and leave on a free.
In any case, the feeling is that he would only accept a move to Real Madrid.
And he knows that time is in his favor, since PSG cannot force him to leave, though they could force him into the stands.

PSG are looking for alternatives
Despite this, the Parisian team has made it clear that they aren’t counting on Mbappe anymore. Not only that, but they have taken his departure for granted.
As a result, they are working the market to find a replacement.
Several names have been linked with a move to Parc des Princes: Vlahovic, Kane, Hojlund.
For the latter, PSG have offered 50 million euros to Atalanta, MARCA can reveal. If the Italian club rejects PSG and opts for Manchester United‘s proposal, they will look for another option.
Whatever happens, the club have the money to make signings without having to sell Mbappe first.
Although his departure is considered certain and money is available, the French club are in no hurry to make a signing.
We will see how things play out in the coming days and how many chapters are left in the Mbappe soap opera.
