Kylian Mbappe transfer news: Agreement sealed, as PSG star promises June announcement

Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe says he will make a public announcement about his future next month after saying a decision is “almost done.”  

The France striker will become a free agent in July with his contract expiring in the French capital. PSG though are desperate to get the 23-year-old to commit to another deal in Ligue 1.

Talks between Mbappe’s mother and the club took place in Doha last month. And the French champions had not given up hope on trying to keep the player, despite a widespread assumption he would join Real Madrid.

Mbappe’s mother Fayza Lamari met with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi in Qatar and The Telegraph claim the meeting went well.

It is understood they proposed a two-year deal, possibly with a break clause at the end of next season. However, Real Madrid have apparently offered to make Mbappe their highest paid player ever.

Liverpool have also been mentioned as suitors for the player, who will reveal all before he joins up with France early next month.

“It will be known very soon, it’s almost done,” Mbappe said. “My decision is made, yes, almost. Why was I so slow? You have to respect all parties.

“I know that people expected a lot from me. That’s normal. I’m in a hurry too. But it’s not only about me. But here it is, it’s finished right now, there are just some details left.

“I will officially announce my decision on the future before I join the France national team in June.”
