PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has confirmed that Kylian Mbappe will be staying at the club for the 2021-2022 season.

The Frenchman’s future has been up in the air this summer, given he has one year remaining on his deal at the Parc des Princes and has gained attention from Real Madrid. 

However, Al-Khelaifi has dismissed claims that the 22-year-old could leave the French capital this summer – claiming that he ‘is a PSG player’ and that there are ‘no doubts or excuses of any other kind’.

Speaking at Lionel Messi’s first press conference at the club, Al-Khelaifi touched on Mbappe’s situation.

He said: ‘Everyone knows the future of Mbappe. He is a PSG player. Kylian is very competitive, he wants to win, he has publicly said that he does not want to leave the team and there are no doubts or excuses of any other kind. Mbappe stays ‘. 

While Messi, who recently signed a two-year contract with Paris St-Germain after leaving Barcelona, said he was excited about playing with Mbappe and Neymar – calling them ‘the best players’ during his press conference. 

Mbappe also revealed before his Euro 2020 campaign with France – which saw him miss a penalty in the last-16 shootout defeat by Switzerland – that he was undecided on his future

Real Madrid had hoped to prise Mbappe from Paris as they were certain that PSG would be unable to build a side with Neymar, Messi and the Frenchman in their attack due to Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules.   

Mbappe had also revealed before his Euro 2020 campaign with France – which saw him miss a penalty in the last-16 shootout defeat by Switzerland – that he was undecided on his future. 

However, Al-Khelaifi claims that the 22-year-old is now committed to the club and that he will not accept any potential offers from other clubs – including Real Madrid.

Therefore, Real Madrid will now have to look elsewhere to add strength to their attacking line ahead of next season.
