• Real Madrid want France forward but no deal reached yet
• Door ajar for Premier League clubs to try to land him

Kylian Mbappé has told Paris Saint-Germain that he will leave the French champions at the end of the season, sparking a potential scramble among Europe’s elite.

The 25-year-old’s departure will draw a line under a seven-year spell that has cemented his status as the world’s most vaunted striker. Mbappé has been a long-term target of Real Madrid but no agreement has yet been reached with the La Liga giants, leaving the door ajar if a Premier League club could meet his sizeable financial demands.
