Kylian Mbappe has a contract clause that would allow the 23-year-old to leave Paris Saint Germain earlier than anticipated, according to stunning new reports.
In the summer, Mbappe stunned the world as he signed a massive £650,000-a-week contract to stay at PSG at a time when it looked like he would certainly be leaving to join Real Madrid.
During the announcement of the new contract, Mbappe proudly wore a shirt at the Parc des Princes, with 'Mbappe 2025' on the back.

This would suggest the Frenchman had penned a three-year deal with PSG, but this is not the whole story, according to L'Equipe.
The French outlet reports that the three-year deal is actually a two-year contract, with the option to extend by a further year.
As per the contract, only Mbappe will have the power to trigger an extension and PSG would need his content come 2024.
In the wake of the new contract, it was also widely reported that Mbappe would have 'complete control' of the club's sporting project.

Despite alleged tension with his teammate Neymar, Mbappe has made an excellent start to the league season.
He has so far scored seven times in the league, and was also on target twice as PSG began their Champions League campaign with a win over Juventus last week.
Christophe Galtier, the PSG boss, has, however quelled talks of a rift between the pair.

"Having spoken with Kylian, who I think spoke about it with Neymar... they’re together in training exercises, they’re often together in the warm-ups."
