Kylian Mbappé is the name that is now set to dominate the summer transfer window.
This afternoon, the forward confirmed that he will not be extending his contract with PSG.
He told AFP: “I have NEVER discussed any contract renewal with PSG.
“The board has been informed since July 15th, 2022 of my decision not to extend beyond 2024 — and the letter sent was only meant to confirm what I already told them.”
Therefore, his current deal will expire next summer and he could leave on a free transfer.
But PSG are unlikely to want that and a sale this summer could very much be on the cards.

And, as per Le Parisien, the Frenchman wants to move to the Spanish capital this summer.
Following Karim Benzema’s departure, Mbappé believes now is the right time to make the move.
With the player’s latest decision not to extend his deal, PSG are open to letting him leave.
Nasser Al-Khelaifi is angry at Mbappé and is ready to sell him.
Mbappé only wants to join Real Madrid and the French champions will not stand in his way.
Madrid have been searching for a Benzema replacement and were looking at Harry Kane.
But with the 24-year-old now on the market, their attention looks to have turned to him.
Los Blancos are prepared to pay the money this summer to land their dream target.
Mbappé to Real Madrid has never been closer…
