Kylian Mbappe rejects ‘blank-cheque contract offer’ from PSG as he edges closer to blockbuster Real Madrid transfer
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN star Kylian Mbappe has reportedly rejected the club's latest megabucks contract offer in a huge boost to Real Madrid.
The 23-year-old, who is set to leave on a free transfer, told Les Parisiens he was unwilling to extend his stay at Parc des Princes last year.
Los Blancos had two offers knocked back by the Ligue 1 leaders for the 2018 World Cup winner in August.
But they remain desperate to secure his services, with the Spanish giants in pole position to lure him away from PSG.
That is despite the efforts of France president Emmanuel Macron trying to convince him to stay in the capital.
According to , Mbappe is destined to depart at the end of the season.
They state that the ex-Monaco ace has turned down a 'blank-cheque' renewal offer to extend his contract.
The length of deal is claimed to have been for a further two years with the player to stay until at least the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The deal would include Mbappe having the option to depart any time after the tournament at the end of the year.
But it appears that the forward has made his mind up as he knocked back PSG's latest proposal.
Marca state that Real are not putting any pressure on Mbappe, while also claiming that Carlo Ancelotti's side will match PSG's contract offer.
Mbappe scored against his potential future employers in last week's Champions League last-16 first leg 1-0 victory.
Following the clash, he stressed that he has still not decided on where he will be playing next term.
He told broadcaster Movistar: "I've not decided my future. I play for Paris Saint-Germain, one of the best clubs in the world.
"This game to influence my future? No – I've not decided, I give my best and then we will see what happens next season."
Boss Mauricio Pochettino added: "We hope that Mbappe will be with us in Paris for many years.
"I'm running out of words to describe him."
