Paris Saint-Germain’s star forward Kylian Mbappé has no plans to head to Saudi Arabia. The 24-year-old has reportedly turned down an opportunity to engage in talks with Saudi Arabia.
Over the last couple of days, Al-Hilal has been moving to land the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner. Still, it doesn’t look like they’re making any strides in convincing the PSG star.
Times Sport reports that the Frenchman’s refusal to engage in talks with Saudi Arabia has only strengthened PSG’s belief that he has already agreed to join Real Madrid.
Mbappé has been a constant subject of transfer rumors, especially since he opted not to trigger his contract extension option until 2025. As a result, the capital club has to pull out all the stops to ensure he doesn’t leave as a free agent.
Hence, the club has been open to discussions with potential suitors. However, it appears that Mbappé already has his sights set on a future with Real Madrid.
It will be interesting to see if PSG can offload the player with only a few more weeks left in the summer transfer window. The clock is ticking, and if there’s no agreement with Real Madrid, then the Ligue 1 champions will have to be content with losing Mbappé as a free agent next summer.
