The news that Kylian Mbappe might leave PSG this summer sent the football world into a frenzy this morning.
Being one of the top players in the world right now, it goes without saying that when news like this breaks, it will undoubtedly produce a storm and stir, and it surely did that.
The most recent inside information on Chelsea’s efforts to recruit Moises Caicedo!
Fans of all clubs, especially Chelsea supporters with their aspiring owners, longed for their owners to travel and attempt to sign Mbappe.
When The Times revealed that Chelsea was interested in Mbappe, that only served to feed the fire even more.
But Chelsea supporters’ fun and games quickly came to an end when two reputable sources cast doubt on the aforementioned report.
Ben Jacobs was the first to tweet, as shown below.

The transfer expert Fabrizio Romano then confirmed what Jacobs had mentioned earlier in his most recent YouTube video, which is cited below:
And so it appears that the fairytale story has already come to an end before it had started! The time for being silly is now.
🚨 Kylian Mbappé has informed PSG of his decision: he’ll NOT trigger the option to extend current contract until 2025, it means that deal would expire next June 2024 — as L’Équipé called.
PSG position: NO plan to lose Kylian for free.
Sign new deal now or he could be sold. pic.twitter.com/fDpSKOmxsf
