Mbappe had just signed a new deal with PSG in May that made him the highest-paid player in the world, but the club’s direction on and off the field is causing a rift, reports ESPN.

The 23-year-old signed on to remain in his home country with their best team through 2025, but it appears that he believes a mistake was made in signing the contract. PSG sporting director Luis Campos, president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and manager Christophe Galtier seemed to have made promises that weren’t kept to Mbappe, according to ESPN.
