Kylian Mbappe Contract: Mauricio Pochettino VERY CONFIDENT Kylian Mbappe will stay at Paris Saint-Germain – Paris Saint-Germain coach Mauricio Pochettino has claimed French wonderkid “100 percent” sure both he and star striker Kylian Mbappe would be at the club next season.
Notably, Mbappe is being targeted by a host of teams, given that his contract with Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain is expiring at the end of the season. According to reports, Real Madrid has emerged as one of the frontrunners to secure Mbappe’s signature, but his manager remains confident he will extend his contract.

Asked at a press conference about what the chances were that he and Mbappe will be at the club next season, Pochettino replied: “100 percent in both cases. That’s what I can perceive, feel today. In football, you can expect a lot of things but that’s what I feel today.”
Pochettino is completing his first full season as PSG coach. In his first season, the club regained the Ligue 1 title but suffered another meltdown in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, this time against Real Madrid.

Pochettino is under contract until 2023 but PSG sporting director Leonardo was less than reassuring when he said on Saturday that he wanted to “speak with everyone, not only with the coach but also the players, to clarify situations and decide on the strategy“.
Media in France have reported that PSG’s Qatari owners have offered Mbappe huge sums of money, but that the 23-year-old World Cup winner has been blowing hot and cold. Leonardo has said Mbappe is still “reflecting” on his future and a meeting between his family and PSG took place last week in Doha.
