On August 21, according to transfer journalist Ben Jacobs, after being repeatedly publicly complained against and threatened with legal action by Mbappé, Paris Saint-Germain is negotiating a “settlement exit clause” with him.
Previously, the French forward joined Real Madrid on a free transfer and signed a five-year contract with a signing fee of 150 million euros in June. However, before transferring to the La Liga giant, Mbappé informed Paris Saint-Germain that he would not leave the club for “free,” meaning he would seek the remainder of his salary from Paris Saint-Germain, totaling approximately 50 million euros.
Despite Mbappé’s legal commitment to waive certain financial rights (including loyalty bonuses), Paris Saint-Germain delayed the payment of Mbappé’s salary from April to ensure he fulfilled his commitment.
The newspaper Le Monde had previously reported on Mbappé’s public complaints, but Paris Saint-Germain declined to comment. However, it is understood that the club is calm about the matter and is determined to seek a positive solution actively.
The journalist believes that Paris Saint-Germain will not be excluded from the Champions League due to this issue. Paris has not yet received any messages from UEFA, Ligue 1, or the French Professional Football League. Paris Saint-Germain is not in a rush to reach a settlement with Mbappé but plans to proceed cautiously and optimistically believes that an amicable agreement can be reached soon.
