Kylian Mbappe will ‘NEVER leave PSG’, insists chief Al-Khelaifi amid Real Madrid and Liverpool transfer links
KYLIAN MBAPPE will NEVER leave Paris Saint-Germain.
That’s according to club chief Nasser Al-Khelaifi, who has shot down reports linking the French ace with Real Madrid and Liverpool.
Mbappe, 22, has enjoyed another stellar season with 42 goals in just 47 games.
He has now spent four seasons with Ligue 1 giants PSG following a 2017 switch from Monaco.
But with his deal expiring next year, reports claim Mbappe has caught the eye of some of Europe’s finest.

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool are also thought to be exploring ways of luring Mbappe to the Premier League.
And with time running down on his deal, it has been suggested PSG may sell the striker this summer to prevent losing him for free in 2022.
However, club president Al-Khelaifi is remaining defiant over Mbappe’s future in the French capital.
Fellow big-money superstar Neymar has already extended his contract under boss Mauricio Pochettino.

And when asked about the chances of Mbappe following suit, Al-Khelaifi gave a confident response.
“We will never sell him and he will never leave on a free. Mbappe has everything he needs in Paris.
“Where can he go? What club, in terms of ambition, can compete with PSG today?
“All I can say is that things are going well and I hope we can reach an agreement [on a new deal].
“This is Paris, this is his country. He has a mission, not only to play football, but to promote Ligue 1, his country and his capital.”
