'I told PSG in July I wanted to leave' - Mbappe admits he sought summer exit amid Real Madrid interest

The World Cup winner has finally broken his silence on his uncertain contractual situation at Parc des Princes

Kylian Mbappe has admitted that he told Paris Saint-Germain he wanted to leave in July amid reported interest from Real Madrid.

The French striker has told RMC Sport: ""People said I turned down six or seven extension offers, that I don't want to talk to Leonardo anymore, that's absolutely not true.

"I asked to leave, because from the moment I did not want to extend, I wanted the club to have a transfer fee to have a quality replacement.
