Kylian Mbappé ‘tells PSG he will not leave club under any circumstances’ – as toxic feud between player and Ligue 1 champion continues
Kylian Mbappé has told Paris Saint-Germain that he will not leave this summer under any circumstances.
The France captain remains at odds with the club over his failure to sign a contract extension with the Ligue 1 champions.
On Tuesday, the club began tearing down a large poster of the star at the Parc des Princes stadium after first condemning him to playing with the club’s ‘B team’ and failing to select him to take part in PSG’s pre-season tour of Asia. .
Mbappé’s shirt has also been removed from the club shop as the Paris hierarchy seeks to force the 24-year-old to accept a permanent deal or loan that would see the club get a £250m return on their holdings.
From Sky Sportsthe 24-year-old will be ruled out by PSG and the player will not play until the end of his contract in 2024, when he is believed to favor a move to Real Madrid as a free agent.

The player and club are locked in deadlock over Mbappé’s refusal to extend his contract
One point delaying Mbappé’s extension of his current contract is said to be related to the club’s transfer policy.
Mbappé is believed to have been disappointed by the transfer decisions the club made after signing his final contract in the summer of 2022, namely the failure to bring Robert Lewandowski and Bernardo Silva to the French capital during that transfer window.
Instead, the Polish international came from Bayern Munich to Barcelona and Silva remains at Manchester City – despite strong interest from both PSG and the Blaugrana.
PSG are determined to be firm in their decision to keep the player on the sidelines if they can’t force him elsewhere, in a show of strength.
The Qatari side believes that no player should be bigger than the club itself, despite the power Mbappé wields as a result of his unique deal.
Tensions between the two sides have been brewing for some time, with things coming to a head when the club attempted to send their wanton player to Saudi Arabia, leading Mbappe to join Saudi Pro League side Al Al for a world record £295 million. Hilal went. .
The World Cup winner subsequently refused to hold talks with the club and turned down the chance to meet representatives in Paris, despite PSG being enthusiastic about the deal going through.
As Mail Sport reported on Friday, the feud between Mbappé and PSG is believed to be so toxic that new head coach Luis Enrique is considering leaving the club just a month after his appointment.
A point of contention for Mbappé is that the club failed to sign Robert Lewandowski (left) or Bernardo Silva in 2022.
