Paris Saint-Germain has authorized the Saudi club Al-Hilal to discuss with Kylian Mbappé to offer a transfer for compensation of 300 million euros for the French team, we learned on Monday from a source close to the negotiations.
“PSG has given permission to Al-Hilal to negotiate with Kylian Mbappé on the basis of a transfer of 300 million euros,” a source familiar with the negotiations told AFP.
PSG received a letter from the Riyadh club with a firm offer and a request for permission to offer Mbappé a contract. However, such a transfer could only be made with the agreement of the player who has never expressed interest in the Saudi Arabian championship, unlike what he was able to do in the past with Real Madrid.
According to the same source, many European clubs have shown interest since Friday evening and the announcement that the player was not going on an internship in Asia with PSG, paving the way for a sale of the Parisian star, at the end of the contract and therefore free in a year.
In conflict with his club over his final year of contract, Mbappé was dropped from the tour of Japan and South Korea which began on Sunday and remained to train with the youngsters and other players awaiting departure at the PSG training center in Poissy.
“Several clubs are showing creativity and offering formulas including a top-level player in the balance plus a transfer,” said this source. “It opens the market to more clubs. »
Al-Hilal’s offer is purely financial.
