Paris Saint-Germain warn Madrid Mbappe will only leave on their "terms"

The Kylian Mbappe saga is just getting started. Real Madrid are closer than ever to signing him and have offered €160 million for the Paris Saint-Germain forward.

PSG have not accepted the offer and the club's sporting director has now been speaking about the French forward's situation.

"If someone wants to leave and our conditions are met, we will see," he said.

However, Leonardo feels that "we consider the offer to be very far from what Kylian represents today. We also owe part of this money to Monaco and we consider that the offer is not enough.

"Kylian wants to leave, that seems clear. If Real Madrid are making an offer, that seems clear… Me I am giving a position, that, I think, is clear for everyone.

"We cannot, the week before the end of the window, change our plans. If he wants to leave, we will not hold him back, but on our terms."

Leonardo continued: "Our position has always been to keep Kylian, to extend his contract, that has always been our aim and that is still the case. 

"We made two significant offers to Kylian: one at the level of the top players in our squad two months ago and one above that of those players very recently. We want to prove to him that he is an important player, at the centre of our project, but not above the project."

Leonardo also criticised Madrid's approach, saying: "For the last two years, Real Madrid have been behaving like this, it is not correct, illegal even because they contacted the player. It is unacceptable for us, because it is not correct.

"It is proof of the strategy: an offer comes one year before the end of his contract and seven days before the end of the window. They want us to reject to show to Kylian that they tried everything and to start negotiating for next year."
