PSG have allowed PIF-funded Saudi Arabia outfit Al-Hilal to entertain transfer talks with Kylian Mbappé (24) after accepting their world-record €300m bid, according to reports from AFP and Goal. As reported earlier this Monday by Fabrizio Romano, the Riyadh-based outfit have submitted a €300m bid for the out-of-favour Mbappé. The 24-year-old all-time record goalscorer at PSG was left out of the Luis Enrique-led squad that flew to Japan on Saturday for their pre-season summer tour in Asia.
The France skipper is entering the final year of his contract with PSG. The Ligue 1 champions want Mbappé to extend his stay at the club or leave now rather than for nothing next summer. However, Mbappe is adamant he will play for PSG next season whilst refusing to sign a new contract with the French champions. The latter believe their key striker has already struck a deal to move to Real Madrid next year as a free agent.
Al-Hilal has reportedly made a formal €300m offer by letter, but such a record-shattering deal could only happen with the agreement of Mbappé. So far, the 24-year-old has never expressed an interest in moving to the fast-growing and spendthrift Saudi league for a lucrative bid.
