- Mbappe subject of huge Al-Hilal bid
- PSG accepted offer
- Mbappe has no intention of moving
WHAT HAPPENED? While PSG have accepted a world-record €300 million (£259m/$332m) offer for Mbappe from Al-Hilal, that would involve a one-year contract and a €700m (£604m/$775m) salary before potentially moving to Real Madrid on a free transfer next summer, Relevo reports that the superstar has no intention of moving to Saudi Arabia.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Previous reports have claimed that Mbappe is willing to sit on the bench in 2023-24 if needs be, and the report now claims that he is happy to not play a single minute this season if he ultimately moves to the Spanish club next summer, when his contract expires.
AND WHAT'S MORE: While Mbappe would be happy to be on the bench, Relevo reports that it presents a thorny issue for new manager Luis Enrique, particularly if PSG were to be eliminated from the Champions League without the World Cup winner. The competition is central to the 24-year-old's ambitions as he is desperate to win the trophy, and hopes to do so with Real.
