Mbappe turns into a nightmare for PSG

When a player is put on a pedestal and given more importance than the club, you end up in a situation like PSG. The Ligue 1 side had the opportunity to let Mbappe leave for another club by relaxing their $270 million sale price but they failed to turn the tide.

Having been reinstated in the first team, Mbappe seems determined to play this season and then leave for free in the summer. As per reports, the player is now willing to waive more than $107.7 million in loyalty bonuses at PSG to get full-time action this season.

The power is now in the hands of Kylian Mbappe. This relaxation from the Frenchman is an attempt to ease his move out of the club. PSG will be desperately looking to extend his contract, but as things stand it looks to be unlikely that he will continue.
