- Kylian Mbappe signed a £650,000-a-week contract to stay at PSG in May
- He turned down the opportunity to join Real Madrid so he could remain in Paris
- He now wants to leave PSG after feeling ‘betrayed’ by the club’s owners
- Fans are claiming Mbappe only stayed at PSG for money and he is now regretting his decision
Fans have slammed Kylian Mbappe following reports that the PSG striker wants to leave the PSG champions in the January transfer window just months after he signed a new deal with the French champions.
Mbappe looked set to join Real Madrid in the summer, but he instead chose to accept a new £650,000-a-week contract to remain at PSG in May.
Less than four months later, it has emerged that Mbappe is no longer happy at PSG, and Marca has reported that he told the club he wanted to move on back in July after feeling ‘betrayed’ by the club’s owners.

One fan believes Mbappe has ‘realised money can’t buy happiness’ as he looks to leave PSG
Another supporter thinks Mbappe showed his ‘greed’ by staying at PSG in the first place
One supporter has labelled Mbappe an ‘idiot’ for signing a new contract at PSG in May
Supporters have been reacting to the latest news on Mbappe’s future, and feel the forward is paying for choosing the money at PSG rather than joining Real Madrid.
‘Mbappe chose money and now he’s paying for his greed. A player who was loved by many is currently receiving more hate than love from football fans and pundits alike. Poetic justice,’ one supporter posted on Twitter.
‘Mbappe wants to leave PSG now after signing a new contract? He is mad. His hands are tied now…he had the opportunity and got deceived with money, now he has realised money can’t buy happiness,’ another fan added.
Another fan wrote: ‘Mbappe is a biggest idiot for real, why would you sign a new contract months ago smh.’
Mbappe has openly criticised manager Christophe Galtier’s tactics in the opening weeks of the season, and his relationship with Neymar appears to be strained after the pair argued on the pitch over who should take a penalty against Montpellier in August.
One fan is stunned that Mbappe is continuing to moan about his current circumstances, despite being one of the highest-paid footballers in the world and having the chance to play alongside Neymar and Lionel Messi every week.

‘Mbappe is like 23 earning 1M a week playing for his boyhood club in Paris alongside two all timers and is still complaining lol,’ they wrote.
Following Mbappe’s decision to snub Real Madrid at the start of the summer, the Spanish club’s president Florentino Perez insisted the Frenchman would regret his choice. A supporter pointed out that Perez has been proved right.
‘Perez was right, Perez is always right. He said Mbappe would regret his decision soon. He is always ahead of the curve. Build this man a statue outside the Bernabeu because we are never going to get a president like him ever again,’ they claimed.
Although Real Madrid showed significant interest in Mbappe over the summer, it is understood that PSG are unwilling to sell their star player to the Spanish giants.
Marca has reported that PSG will help with Mbappe’s exit as long as certain conditions are met, including taking a move to the Bernabeu off the table.

It has been claimed that Mbappe has ruined his image over the past year
One Supporter feels that turning down the chance to sign Mbappe is not an option for any club
This leaves Liverpool as one of the only feasible options to sign Mbappe, after the World Cup winner revealed earlier this year that the Reds had shown an interest in bringing him to Anfield.
It remains to be seen whether other clubs will throw their hat into the ring for his signature, but one supporter has claimed that despite the ‘baggage’ that comes with Mbappe, turning down the chance to sign him is not an option due to how good he is.
‘It’s a shame Mbappe comes with all the baggage, he’s already damaged his image in the past year or so with his ego. Such a hot head, but nonetheless a ridiculous footballer and one of the very best. So you can’t really say no,’ they wrote.
