In 2021, PSG rejected a substantial bid from Madrid for Mbappé, who later signed a contract extension with the Parisian club. However, recent developments indicate that Mbappé will be departing PSG at the end of the current season.

Since his arrival at PSG in 2017, Mbappé has been a standout performer, alongside the likes of Neymar. Despite the significant investment in star players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani, and Lionel Messi, PSG has yet to claim the coveted Champions League trophy.

Mbappé, who burst onto the scene as a prodigious talent with Monaco, has shouldered the responsibility for PSG's shortcomings. Reflecting on his performance, he acknowledged his role in the team's lack of efficiency in front of goal and expressed his determination to make a difference.

With an impressive track record at both the club and international level, Mbappé remains a sought-after talent in the football world. As he contemplates his next move, the footballing community eagerly awaits his decision and the potential impact it could have on the landscape of European football.
