Kylian Mbappe leaving PSG in January? Latest transfer news and ... (Sporting News)

Kylian Mbappe, one of football's brightest stars, has risen to the very top of the game but all is not well at PSG as the French forward feels "betrayed" ...

The players could be seen debating who should take the penalty on the field, with Mbappe looking visibly frustrated for the rest of the match. The club shipped off Thilo Kehrer and Alphonse Areola to West Ham before a late deal sent Julian Draxler to Benfica. Liverpool managed to exit the summer transfer window with a net spend of just around €10 million, meaning the Reds could have money to spend if Mbappe were to become available. [Julien Laurens of ESPN](https://www.espn.com/soccer/soccer-transfers/story/4767566/kylian-mbappe-seeks-psg-exit-in-january-amid-broken-relationship-with-club-sources), one of the promises PSG made was to have Mbappe play alongside a true No. Neymar then 'liked' a post on Twitter that criticized Mbappe for his actions during the on-field penalty incident. Liverpool sit 10th in the Premier League table, with a litany of injuries and defensive frailties also to blame. Jan Aage Fjortoft, the former Norway international who is now a journalist and broadcaster, believes it is a matter of time until Mbappe joins Madrid. The report states that at 23 years old, Mbappe is the youngest player to earn over $100m in a year, something that took both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi until their 30s to accomplish. If all quiets down and he stays at PSG this winter, Madrid could again be the favorites for Mbappe's next club. He was also reportedly given influence in the club's transfer business as well as coaching decisions, but that was refuted by Mbappe and his camp. This year, having signed a new contract at the Parisian club, Mbappe had seemed poised to lead a revived Lionel Messi and Neymar to make PSG genuine contenders for Europe's top prize. The club has signed multiple superstars at gargantuan wages in pursuit of their goal of becoming champions of Europe.

That’s why I’m here, to deny and say clearly that Kylian Mbappe has never spoken to me or to the president (Nasser Al-Khelaifi) to leave PSG in January.” Sources familiar with Mbappe’s situation at PSG told the publication that the relationship is now beyond repair — and the Frenchman wants to leave in January.

This so-called failure of the club to do exactly what a 23-year-old big bairn wants has caused Mbappé to feel “upset”, according to a report on Big Website from Fabrizio Romano, who may well be sending out an “On y va!” tweet about the player rather sooner than he expected. That’s something of a shock seeing Mbappé had snubbed Real Madrid in the summer to sign a new £650,000-a-week contract, but now he wants to snub PSG and his new £650,000-a-week contract to sign for Real Madrid. – and seems to be the result of PSG supposedly reneging on a promise to sign Robert Lewandowski, Bernardo Silva and Inter defender Milan Skriniar, while sending Neymar bouncing down the Autoroute du Sud on his backside, back to Barcelona or whoever else in Spain will take him, so fast his shorts have sparks and smoke coming out of them. Setting aside the fact that it’s a statistic worth the square root of eff all – for the record, he’s now scored 31 eurogoals for les Rouge-et-Bleu, one more than PSG’s other Big Cup nearly man Edinson Cavani, but really, whatever – that should have been the big story of the evening.

Henry slams Mbappe and warns PSG star 'the club is bigger' amid ... (Goal.com)

Thierry Henry has heavily criticised Kylian Mbappe for his off-the-pitch antics at PSG and has warned him that the 'club is bigger' than him.

In the end, there's only one rule: If the coach asks you to do something, you do it for the good of the team. However, the coach tried to play down the situation calling it a [ "reaction in the heat of the moment, after a moment of disappointment." But did they make him feel that the club was the most important thing? Where did they make him feel more important than the club?" But I had to do it for the team.

Why is Mbappe leaving PSG? Issues with contract, Neymar, more (ESPN Australia)

Mbappe is supposed to be the brilliant young cornerstone of PSG's dominance and yet, just 143 days after signing a new deal, he wants out. Why?

He sees it at training and in matches, and he doesn't believe a quick fix is possible. Mbappe was told that Neymar would be sold in the summer, yet he is still there and thriving in the position Mbappe thought would be his own. The lack of depth at the back is a worry. Against Benfica, we saw some of the limitations of his PSG team, especially in defensive transitions. [Milan Skriniar](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/175195/Milan-Skriniar) was the target all summer, but he never came, and now PSG are arguably weak in the heart of defense following the injury to [Presnel Kimpembe](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/207015/Presnel-Kimpembe) and the red card to [Sergio Ramos](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/41579/Sergio-Ramos) last weekend at Reims. They tried for [Robert Lewandowski](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/125824/Robert-Lewandowski) (who joined [Barcelona](/football/team?id=83) instead), [Gianluca Scamacca](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/233140/Gianluca-Scamacca) (who joined West Ham) and even [Marcus Rashford](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/230945/Marcus-Rashford), but failed every time. He was the focus of all the pregame talk, all the TV shows, all the radio shows and all the newspaper columns, and he was a major topic on social media. They used to be friends, but their contrasting trajectories -- Mbappe is very much on the rise given his profile, while Neymar is winding down and arguably entering the final years of his career -- mean they have grown apart. The world was watching, and to be fair, they had been since he got off the [Paris Saint-Germain](/football/team?id=160) team bus with [Achraf Hakimi](https://www.espn.com.au/football/player/_/id/240233/Achraf-Hakimi), his friend and teammate, almost four hours earlier. The Frenchman is also playing a position -- lone striker -- that he doesn't like. He wants to be paired with a second striker, to have more freedom by playing off a more conventional No. He feels betrayed by all the promises made, but not kept, by PSG when he extended his contract.

Kylian Mbappe's PSG future: France legend Henry says no player ... (ESPN Australia)

Thierry Henry hit out at Kylian Mbappe amid growing rumours that the France forward wants to leave Paris Saint-Germain.

If it's bad for the team, I would get the argument." I didn't hear anyone say, 'Oh, what a nice gesture!' to go on the left instead of players who had less goals and less caps. [Sources told ESPN on Tuesday](/football/soccer-transfers/story/4767566/kylian-mbappe-seeks-psg-exit-in-january-amid-broken-relationship-with-club-sources) that the 23-year-old Mbappe, who extended his contract with PSG until 2025 after looking close to joining [Real Madrid](/football/team?id=86) during the close season, wants to leave the French champions in January. "I will use my own stories. But I did it for the team," he said. "I didn't like it after a hundred caps and I don't know how many goals I scored for France, I had to play on the left.

Mbappe fires back: PSG winners, losers & ratings as want-away ... (Goal.com)

Kylian Mbappe pushed past the outside noise to score for Paris Saint-Germain in a 1-1 draw with Benfica on Tuesday.

[Juventus surprisingly lost to Maccabi Haifa earlier in the evening](https://www.goal.com/en/news/juventus-embarrassed-maccabi-haifa-champions-league/blt4f5662971e61c160), but both teams lacked the quality to grab the game by the scruff of the neck. The goal made Mbappe the club's all-time top scorer in the Champions League, but his goal & the lead it gave PSG did not translate into a positive second-half performance.

Kylian Mbappé Wants To Leave A PSG He Couldn't Make His Own ... (Defector)

[proved](https://defector.com/paris-belongs-to-kylian-mbappe/) that he could be the best player on the team and probably even the best player in the world. But it would be just as hard not to admit that Neymar (nine goals and nine assists in 14 matches) and Messi (seven goals and eight assists in 12), empowered in their favored positions, have been the real drivers of PSG’s efforts this season. Should PSG stick to its usual stubbornness, Mbappé could soon discover that the biggest impediment to the realization of his career aspirations isn’t Neymar, but is in fact PSG itself—a team built expressly by and for him, but one he still hasn’t been able to claim full ownership of. That makes the prospect of Mbappé leaving Paris in January or even next summer a highly dubious proposition. It would be hard to argue that Mbappé is being misused at PSG this season, seeing as he’s scored 12 goals in 13 games so far across Ligue 1 and the Champions League. They report that the player feels “betrayed” by the club for how it failed to adhere to the promises it made him as a condition on his extending his contract: principally, promises in the transfer market, his playing position, and his role as the leader and most important piece of the club’s project. The seeds of the present discontentment can be found both in that contract and in PSG’s success this year. His joining PSG—which itself, according to reports, was done at the behest of Mbappé—was supposed to signal a new day at the club as it distanced itself from its showy but poorly considered team-building strategies to adopt a more coherent plan. Campos is one of the most respected soccer executives in Europe and has close ties with Mbappé going back to their time together at Monaco. Le Parisien also reports that Luís Campos, who signed with PSG this summer as the club’s sporting director, is also close to leaving the club. [quite a few](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/27/sports/soccer/kylian-mbappe-psg-contract.html) dollars) why Kylian Mbappé chose to re-sign with Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season. But right when Mbappé could’ve escaped PSG’s golden cage by joining Madrid on a free transfer, he instead decided to stay in Paris, no doubt hoping that the club’s financial commitment and its many promises that he would be the team’s focal star going forward would earn him the status he desired without forcing him to leave home.

La Liga Chief Javier Tebas Takes His Feud With PSG President to ... (The New York Times)

A multimillion-dollar dispute between the Spanish league and its Qatari broadcast partner, beIN Media Group, is the latest flare-up in the battle between ...

The latest court fight will do little to lower the temperature, and it is not over. “People in football are cowards,” Tebas said Wednesday, explaining why others have not been as outspoken as he has about the market-altering influence of teams like P.S.G. paid the French star Kylian Mbappé a signing-on fee of more than $100 million to reject the overtures of Real Madrid. What is uncommon is the lengths La Liga has gone to ensure it receives the money it says it is owed. But it also will shine a spotlight on the influence of al-Khelaifi, whose simultaneous roles as the chairman of P.S.G. “If we ran our operations reacting to certain executive’s comments on others within the sports industry, we wouldn’t be in business,” the company said. “He knows exactly what he is doing,” Tebas said of al-Khelaifi. But the company said it would not discuss its private, contractual discussions with La Liga or any rights-holder, adding, “That is not how business should be conducted, certainly not by professional and dignified institutions.” The beIN spokesman said 10 million euros of the debt had been repaid on Oct. BeIN Media Group learned about the case, and the order freezing its assets, from a New York Times reporter. president, Nasser al-Khelaifi, would [respond](https://www.marca.com/en/football/psg/2022/05/23/628bc1b746163f1a898b4585.html) to Tebas with his own accusations, questioning the health of Spanish soccer, or trade barbs with him in the news media and in speeches. But according to a court document reviewed by The New York Times, the network had so far failed to pay more than 50 million euros it owed the Spanish league for this season’s games.

Could Kylian Mbappe Really Be Set To Leave PSG? (Barron's)

In any case, there is surely no chance PSG would consider selling their star player in the January transfer window. "All I know is that a rumour became a story and then that almost became a declaration." "You are taking things out of context," Achraf Hakimi, an ally of Mbappe's in the Paris dressing room, told journalists. The story emerged on Tuesday, with Spanish sports daily Marca and several French media reporting that Mbappe wants to leave PSG as soon as possible. Yet Mbappe was apparently expecting a new centre-forward to arrive as well. Mbappe, who scored 39 goals last season, got his 12th of this campaign in Tuesday's 1-1 Champions League draw against Benfica.
