According to a report by Marca journalist Mario Cortegana, the 2018 world champion has been working on his departure from the Parc des Princes next January.

Mbappe signed a new deal with Christophe Galtier's side in the summer, earning an astonishing £650,000-a-week.

The Frenchman has reportedly cut an unhappy figure since the 2022/23 season started, having fallen out with teammate Neymar. He has also publicly hit out at Galtier's tactics and was critical of the French gaffer, following PSG's goalless draw against Reims.

Despite the 'bad blood' between Mbappe and the PSG hierarchy, the French club remain unbeaten in all competitions, Ligue 1 and the UEFA Champions League.

He is expected to be in action on Tuesday night when the French champions play host to Portuguese outfit Benfica at the Parc des Princes.

Their frosty relationship came to the fore during a Ligue 1 fixture which revolved around a penalty in the 5-2 win over Montpellier.
