Al Hilal's £257m world-record bid for Kylian Mbappe rejected by PSG; no meeting scheduled with the player's camp Follow the summer transfer window with Sky Sports
Kylian Mbappe has declined the opportunity to engage in discussions with representatives from Al Hilal regarding a potential transfer to Saudi Arabia. PSG has granted Al Hilal permission to negotiate with Mbappe following the Saudi club's groundbreaking offer of €300m (£257m) for the player on Saturday.
Representatives of Al Hilal have been in Paris this week but there has been no meeting with Mbappe's camp.

If Mbappe went to Al Hilal it would have become the most expensive transfer in history
According to PSG insiders, it is believed that Mbappe is declining to engage with Al Hilal as he allegedly already has an agreement in place to join Real Madrid as a free agent next summer, upon the expiration of his current contract. The offer presented by Al Hilal hinged on the acceptance of a payment schedule and was contingent upon the formalization of contracts between the respective clubs as well as between Mbappe and Al Hilal.
PSG has received interest from at least five clubs for signing Mbappe. Al Hilal's offer is not the sole one that the French champions have received. There is reportedly a strong demand for the France captain, with clubs like Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham, Inter Milan, and Barcelona showing interest.

PSG is open to considering any offers and proposals to transfer Mbappe, and if it solely depended on the French champions, they would prefer selling him to the highest bidder. However, it is highly unlikely for other clubs to match the substantial offer presented by Al Hilal.
The 24-year-old will not play for PSG again if he does not extend his contract.

Real may consider submitting a formal offer for the player to avoid missing out on him once more, as PSG is resolute in not letting Mbappe go without compensation.
