In just over a few months, Paris Saint Germain striker Kylian Mbappe will be free to negotiate with other clubs if he does not want to extend his stay in the French capital.
Then he can move for free next summer.
Mbappe has already told PSG that he wants to leave, according to The Independent, and yet the Ligue Un giants have turned down offers of up to € 200million, according to the same report.
Now, sporting director Leonardo reportedly wants the La Liga giants to be punished for their sustained efforts to praise Mbappe from the French capital, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, who quoted the Festival dello Sport in a Twitter post.

PSG’s clear intention is to keep one of their best players and have him play alongside Lionel Messi and Neymar in one of the most feared three-pointers in world football.
PSG Director Leonardo on the Festival dello Sport: “Our idea is to extend Kylian Mbappé’s contract. Nothing has changed in our plans. Kylian is a gem, he is incredibly perfect for PSG … then we have Kylian, Leo, Ney. We never planned PSG’s future without Mbappé ”. ? #PSG # Mbappé pic.twitter.com/Y5XZpvXG1J

Given the way the French world champions tore Man City apart with the Argentines in the Champions League, it’s no wonder there is a desire to make sure he doesn’t leave the Parc des Princes team.
Ultimately, the player will decide, and it seems that they have expressed their feelings crystal clear.
