We reported on Tuesday that the huge Champions League tie between Barcelona and PSG was almost like an audition for PSG striker Kylian Mbappé and my did he show up.

According to the Diario Sport. Mbappé is planning of spending one more season in Paris before moving on in the summer of 2022.

The 22-year-old hotshot is one of the most sought after players in the world right now and should Mbappé leave when his contract is expired there will be a massive battle for his signature.

It’s clear to see why now after Mbappé destroyed European giants Barcelona in their own back yard on Tuesday evening during PSG’s 4-1 demolition of the Catalan giants.

Mbappé is said to have had developed a healthy relationship with former Real Madrid and France legend Zinedine Zidane which hints at a move to Madrid but a final decision over his future has not yet been confirmed.

If PSG do get the opportunity to eventually sell Mbappe they will demand more than the £198million they paid to sign Neymar in 2017, which remains a world-record fee report the Daily Mail.
