However, it seems Mbappe is now poised to don the colors of Real Madrid next season, opting to see out his contract with PSG. The 25-year-old's impending departure has dominated football transfer discussions for over a year, with sources close to the club affirming Mbappe's desire for a new challenge before the start of the upcoming season.
Popular football journalist Fabrizio Romano took to his official Twitter handle to confirm that Mbappe has decided to leave PSG after the conclusion of the 2023-24 season. Romano said that Mbappe has informed club president Nasser Al Khelaifi about his decision to leave.

Mbappe's journey began in 2017 when he joined PSG from Monaco, and although he extended his contract in 2022 until 2024, he opted out of activating a clause that would have extended his stay for another year last summer. With numerous clubs vying for his signature, Real Madrid emerges as the frontrunner for the acquisition of the talented World Cup winner.
