Of course, Mbappe has been the subject of intense transfer speculation ahead of the summer transfer window. 

​His current contract expires at the end of the season, with the Spanish giants thought to be monitoring his situation ahead of a potential blockbuster free transfer. 

The 23-year-old has produced heroics for the French giants since signing for the club in 2017.

He bagged an incredible 42 goals in all competitions last season, and has 24 goals to his name this campaign.

But is he in his fifth and final year at PSG? Watch this space.
