Kylian Mbappe's future is still unknown. He has a contract with PSG until 2024 and the player has said he will honour it, but there is speculation that he will be transferred this summer. French Football Federation (FFF) president Philippe Diallo said he understands that Madrid want him, as everyone would like to have the best.

The big question of the summer is: what will become of Kylian Mbappe? Although he is tied to PSG until 2024, he could leave this summer if a big offer comes in.

'Le Parisien' wanted to know the opinion of Philippe Diallo, president of the French Federation, and he understands why Madrid have long wanted him in their ranks. "Everyone wants to have the best players in their league. They are the ones who make people dream, the ones who change games," he said.

"Should he stay at PSG? My answer is that the longer he stays in France, the better for our football," he added. However, he understands that Mbappe will do what suits him and that it is a decision for the player to make. "It's not up to me, as president of the federation, to replace the player's will," he said.

Everything seems to indicate that these market months will be long and there are those who already see him leaving the Parc des Princes. The bookmakers, for example, say it is more likely that Mbappe will sign for Madrid than that he will stay at PSG.
