Kylian Mbappe is reportedly ready to commit his future to PSG in a deal running until 2026 that includes a private release clause for next summer. 

The 24-year-old has undergone a U-turn of damascene proportions having clearly stated his intention to leave the French champions on a free in 12 months time  following the expiration of his contract. 

With the club initially banishing him from the first team, adamant he would not be allowed to run down his deal, the French superstar appeared to reluctantly accept the club’s stance. 

However, the prospective deal will include a mystery release clause for next summer that could still allow the forward to complete his dream move to Real Madrid.

PSG bounced back from a disappointing start to the defence of their Ligue 1 title with a 3-1 in against Lens last weekend, where Mbappe netted twice in his first start of the campaign.
