The Argentinian is a free agent after Barcelona were blocked from registering the Argentine and he is now set to join PSG soon, with a two-year deal reportedly agreed with the option of a further year. According to Spanish journalist Andi Onrubia, via the Daily Star, the departure of Mbappe from PSG this summer is already a reality as he does not wish to renew his contract and Messi's arrival prevents the club from being able to keep him with Neymar also on the wage bill. He confirmed on Twitter that "The Frenchman has never been as close to leaving as now." Mabppe has long bee linked with a move to Liverpool, while Real Madrid are also believed to be keen on securing his services.
