According to Le Parisien, Kylian Mbappé has decided to leave PSG. The newspaper reports that Mbappé has finally made a decision, choosing to depart from PSG for Real Madrid.
However, the club is reportedly not aware of this decision, and there have been conflicting reports, with denials stating that Mbappé has not communicated his decision to the PSG management.
Meanwhile, PSG is reportedly preparing for Mbappé’s potential departure and is considering alternatives. According to ESPN, while the primary plan (Plan A) is still to retain Mbappé, a backup plan (Plan B) involves targeting Rafael Leão, the AC Milan forward. Leão is under contract until 2028, but he has a release clause of 175 million euros that can be activated in July.
Italian media suggests that Rafael Leão is tempted by the prospect of joining PSG. The report mentions that the summer between Milan and Leão has been warm, with Mbappé being very close to Real Madrid. However, the Portuguese player is reportedly enticed by PSG, which needs to impress AC Milan with a very high offer. The contract includes a release clause of 175 million euros.
A tweet from @capuanogio also supports the idea that Rafael Leão is tempted by a move to PSG. The tweet mentions that Leão is attracted to PSG, but the Parisian club must convince AC Milan with a substantial offer, considering the release clause in Leão’s contract.
