It cannot be denied that despite facing many big questions about his future, Mbappe is still playing very professionally. The French striker contributed 2 goals and 1 assist in the latest PSG 4-0 Montpellier match to help the home team firmly hold the top spot in Ligue 1.
The 22-year-old star's contract with his hometown team is still valid for 18 months. At the beginning of the season, Mbappe said he would only be with PSG for the rest of the season, but now, Mbappe's point of view is a bit different.
"The club and I are discussing a suitable option. I'm thinking about it seriously. If he signs again with PSG, it will definitely be a long-term contract.
I am always happy here. The fans and everyone have helped me a lot. However, I also have to think about what I will do in the coming years, where to follow my own wishes?
I knew I had to make a decision soon. I don't want to say that I'm ready to leave after signing the contract. If I had signed, I would have stayed here long and contributed to achieving results," Mbappe shared after the victory over Montpellier.
Mbappe has scored 14 goals in 22 appearances this season. He is still Real Madrid's number 1 target with Zidane's wish. Along with Real, Liverpool are also closely following Mbappe to gradually renew an old attack.
Mbappe's price will range from 150 - 200 million pounds. PSG are hoping that Mbappe's deal could help them recover the £198 million they spent on Neymar in the summer of 2017.
