Kylian Mbappe wants PSG exit as Liverpool transfer demand is made

Kylian Mbappe has asked to leave Paris Saint-Germain and wants to join Real Madrid in the January transfer window, according to widespread reports in France and Spain.

The 23-year-old signed a new three-year contract with the French champions in May, which temporarily put an end to his constant links with a move to Madrid.

But according to Le Parisien, Mbappe ‘feels betrayed’ by PSG’s hierarchy as he is unhappy that a number of promises made to persuade him to sign a new contract have not been kept, including new signings in the summer window and his own role in the team.

Mbappe’s relationship with Neymar has also deteriorated in recent months, and it’s understood that the French forward was keen for PSG to offload the Brazilian in the summer.

Meanwhile, Marca report that PSG had opened the door for Mbappe to leave in July but the French club made it clear that he would not be sold to Real Madrid, which is his preferred destination.

PSG, however, would be willing to sell Mbappe to Liverpool, who have failed with their attempt to sign the striker in the past.

Speaking to The Telegraph in May, Mbappe revealed that Liverpool had made an approach before he signed his new deal with PSG.

‘We talked a little bit, but not too much. We talked a little bit,’ Mbappe said.

‘I talked to Liverpool because it’s the favourite club of my mum, my mum loves Liverpool. I don’t know why, you will have to ask her!

‘It’s a good club and we met them five years ago. When I was in Monaco I met them. It’s a big club.’

Meanwhile, Madrid president Florentino Perez accused Mbappe of ‘changing his dream’ after he signed a new deal to stay at PSG.

‘His dream was to play at Real Madrid,’ Perez told El Chiringuito in June.

‘We wanted to do it last August and they didn’t let him leave, he kept saying he wanted to play at Madrid and 15 days before that changed the situation.

‘This is not the Mbappe I wanted to bring, he is another one, who must have changed his dream.

‘He changes, he is offered other things, he is pressured and he is already another footballer.

‘There is no-one at Real Madrid above the club. He is a great player, he can win more than others, but it is a collective sport and we have values and principles that we cannot change.’
