Long-term Liverpool target Kylian Mbappe to leave PSG at the end of this season
The news of Kylian Mbappe and his impending departure from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has sent shockwaves through the football world, with clubs like Liverpool and Real Madrid closely monitoring the situation. The 25-year-old forward, who has been a standout performer for PSG since he arrived in 2017, has reportedly expressed his desire to leave the French capital at the end of the season once his contract expires.
Despite signing a two-year extension with PSG in 2022, Mbappe has decided to seek new challenges elsewhere, and his decision has sparked intense speculation about his next destination. According to The Athletic [ subscription required ], Mbappe, who made the move to the Parc des Princes from AS Monaco in 2017, has communicated his desire to leave the French capital. Real Madrid, long-time admirers of the French superstar, are reportedly leading the race to secure his signature. The Spanish giants have always remained keen to acquire Mbappe’s services, having seen several bids for him rejected in the past.
However, Liverpool have also emerged as a potential destination for Mbappe, albeit with some reservations due to the club’s strict wage policy. The Reds’ financial structure may pose a challenge in competing with the lucrative offers from other clubs, including Real Madrid.

What next in the Mbappe saga?
While Mbappe’s departure from PSG seems imminent, the terms of his exit are yet to be finalized, and an official announcement is expected in the coming months.

Regardless of where Mbappe ultimately decides to ply his trade next season, his departure from PSG will mark the end of an era for the French club. Having contributed significantly to PSG’s success over the years, Mbappe leaves behind a legacy that will stand remembered by fans and teammates alike.
For Liverpool and Real Madrid, the prospect of signing Mbappe represents a tantalizing opportunity to bolster their respective squads with one of the world’s most talented players.
