For nearly a calendar year since Lionel Messi chose to sign with Paris Saint-Germain in August, questions have been floating around about Kylian Mbappé’s future with the club.
It seemed pretty clear that his future was going to be with Real Madrid with the club in hot pursuit of him last summer. They’d made a legitimate run at him and things actually seemed close at one point.
But, now, here we are. Mbappé isn’t going anywhere. The most incredible young talent in the football world has signed a new deal with PSG that’ll keep him with the club until 2025, according to Fabrizio Romano.
🚨 Kylian Mbappé will STAY at Paris Saint-Germain. He’s definitely not joining Real Madrid this summer, the final decision has been made and communicated to Florentino Perez. 🤝 #Mbappé

This is a pretty big deal. It completely shifts the balance of power in football. I know that sounds weird since he’s staying, but it makes sense.
Follow me real quick on this.
