Mbappe has denied requesting to leave PSG this summer and claims that the letter he wrote was intended to be private, but was leaked to the public in an effort to tarnish his reputation. Reports surfaced on Monday that Mbappe had informed PSG that he would not be activating the extension clause in his contract, which would have kept him at the club until 2025. As a result, he is now on track to become a free agent at the end of the upcoming season.
Mbappe confirmed to news agency AFP on Tuesday that Paris Saint-Germain had been aware of his decision for almost a year already. He stated that the letter he sent was simply to formalize what had already been discussed in the past. Additionally, Mbappe made it clear that he has not had any conversations with PSG regarding a contract extension.
Kylian Mbappe had previously announced his intention to play for Paris next season, but he did not request to leave this summer. Instead, he simply informed the club that he would not be activating his additional year. The club was already aware of his decision, as it had been previously communicated orally, and the email was only meant to confirm the information. The club's management had been responsible for the extension, which Mbappe signed on May 21, 2022, and they were informed of his decision on July 15, 2022.
Mbappe and his team have stated that they did not bring up this issue with the club at any point throughout the year, with the exception of 15 days ago when they sent the letter. They have also made it clear that there has been no mention of a potential contract extension. Furthermore, they expressed their disappointment that the media was made aware of the letter and that these private discussions between themselves and the club have been made public, potentially harming Mbappe's reputation and the progress of their discussions.
