PSG have their priorities straight. 'L'Equipe' reports that the club's most important goal is to complete the renewal of Kylian Mbappe. Until this is confirmed, PSG will not try and sign Leo Messi.

Kylian Mbappe's contract with PSG expires in June 2022. Those at the Parc des Princes don't want him to escape this summer, meaning the club are doing all they can to convince him to stay.

At the moment, Mbappe hasn't commented on the matter, and PSG aren't in any rush. According to 'L'Equipe', there hasn't yet been any movement to find out the striker's decision.

PSG's main priority at the moment is the renewal of their star man, with the signing of Messi coming second.

For a while it has been speculated whether the French club might land the Argentine, whose contract with Barca expires in June. However PSG aren't making any moves just yet.

'L'Equipe' reports that, until PSG receive a "yes" from Mbappe, they will not go for Messi. Regarding the Argentine star, the French newspaper explains that he is left with only two options - continue with Barca or try it with PSG, given that Man City have withdrawn from the race to sign the number 10.
