Breaking: Kylian Mbappe to leave PSG at the end of 23/24 season

Kylian Mbappe has finally informed PSG that he will be leaving the club at the end of the season when his contract runs out. The forward declined to extend his contract beyond 2024 last summer, which caused a lot of controversy. But, he decided to forego the €80 million loyalty bonus included in his deal, saving the club a significant amount of money while letting him leave on his terms. 

The player still intends to see the season through with PSG, and is focused on winning all available trophies. But the news could spell the end of a saga that has been brewing for years on end now. 

Kylian Mbappe to leave PSG at the end of the season 

After the close call with Real Madrid two years ago when they offered €200 million for him, it seems like Mbappe’s arrival will happen on a free transfer this summer. The player ended up extending his deal with PSG last time, but things are different this time around. 

And the deal he will be signing with Real Madrid will be lower in terms of wages offered. However, it is not yet confirmed that Los Blancos have won the race to sign the player. Which means that there is still the slightest possibility for a shocking revelation. 

But, Madrid are leading the race to sign Mbappe by a huge margin owing to their history. And it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Mbappe come to the Spanish capital. 

Kylian Mbappe has scored 316 and assisted 129 goals in 425 career appearances for club and country, winning 15 trophies, including the 2018 World Cup. Mbappe is Paris Saint-Germain’s record goalscorer in all competitions, despite being 24 and joining them six years ago. He has scored 243 goals in 290 appearances.

Partnering up with Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, he could form a partnership that could lead Madrid into domination for the next decade. All three players are lightning fast, and with a solid defence behind them, there might be no single club in Europe that can match the quality they bring to the table. 

As a striker, Mbappe’s playing style is defined by his unique blend of speed, skill, and intelligence on the field.

At the heart of Mbappe’s game is his exceptional speed, which is arguably unparalleled in modern football. Blessed with explosive acceleration and lightning-quick sprints, he has the ability to leave defenders trailing in his wake. Mbappe’s pace not only allows him to outrun opponents in foot races but also enables him to make intelligent runs behind the defensive line, consistently putting him in goal-scoring positions.

In addition to his speed, Mbappe possesses exceptional dribbling ability and close control, allowing him to maneuver effortlessly through opposition defenses. His quick feet and agility enable him to navigate tight spaces and evade challenges with ease, making him a constant threat in one-on-one situations.

Mbappe’s playing style is further complemented by his clinical finishing ability. Whether with precise strikes from distance, composed finishes in front of goal, or instinctive tap-ins, he has a knack for finding the back of the net with remarkable efficiency. His composure under pressure and ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities make him a deadly finisher in front of goal.

Furthermore, Mbappe’s intelligence and tactical awareness on the field set him apart as a striker. He possesses a keen understanding of space and timing, allowing him to exploit defensive vulnerabilities and make decisive contributions to his team’s attacking play.

Mbappe could rotate with Vinicius Jr on the left wing, or play entirely through the middle, creating a new role for himself.
