Kylian Mbappe: Why Paris Saint-Germain Will Pay Wantaway Star €60M by August 1

• Paris Saint-Germain must pay Kylian Mbappe €60 million if they fail to sell him this summer
• PSG have put up the France forward up for sale this summer after his refusal to renew his contract
• Real Madrid and Saudi club Al-Hilal are linked with a move for Mbappe this transfer window

Paris Saint-Germain’s failure to offload Kylian Mbappe before August 1 will come at a huge financial cost for the reining Ligue 1 champions due to a unique clause in his last contract.

The 24-year-old forward renewed his contract for two more years with the Parisians last summer and has declined to extend it, with just one year left on the deal.

According to Goal, Mbappe will be due to get a loyalty bonus amounting to €60 million from PSG if he remains at the Ligue 1 club until August 1. This is a clause that PSG do not want to be triggered.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid president, Florentino Perez has reportedly devised a strategy to get a €30 million discount on Mbappe when he is ultimately sold, Football Transfers reports.

Mbappe's asking price is now considered to be about €150m, but Los Blancos have been told that around mid-August, PSG will reduce the player’s value to €120m.

Perez’s plan is quite simply to be patient and wait for the clock to run down to get a good bargain for Mbappe that will ultimately be cost-saving for Real Madrid.
