Arsenal and Chelsea receive a significant boost in their pursuit of Kylian Mbappe as the 25-year-old striker hints at the possibility of leaving Paris Saint-Germain. With Mbappe’s contract set to expire at the end of the season, the Premier League clubs have an opportunity to engage in pre-contract talks with the Frenchman, who is yet to extend his stay at Les Parc des Princes.

As the January transfer window progresses, PSG faces a dilemma: either risk losing Mbappe for free or consider selling him before the end of the month. The uncertainty surrounding his future has opened the door for English clubs, with Arsenal and Chelsea, among others, expressing interest. Real Madrid is also a formidable contender in the race for Mbappe’s signature.

While earlier reports hinted at an agreement with Real Madrid, Mbappe’s representatives promptly refuted any such deal, emphasizing their client’s careful consideration before making a decision.

In a recent interview with GQ Magazine, Mbappe vaguely alluded to departing from PSG, not specifying any particular destination, saying, “Many great players who have shaped the history of football have left Europe this summer, and we are entering a new era.

It’s become part of the cycle of this sport, and at some point, it will be my turn to leave. I’m not worried about these changes. I’m simply thinking about continuing my career and following my own path.”
