PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe has fuelled further speculation regarding his future after footage has been leaked of him confessing he’s ‘fed up’ to Paul Pogba as he arrived for France international duty.
The 23-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer with his contract due to expire at the end of the current season – meaning he can leave on a free transfer.
Talks between the Frenchman and Real are said to have intensified following PSG’s dramatic exit from the Champions League at the hands of Los Blancos.

Mbappe, who is the French giants top goalscorer with 15 goals in 26 Ligue 1 appearances so far this campaign, has seemingly increased talk surrounding his potential summer transfer.
Manchester United midfielder Pogba, who himself will be available on a free this summer, asked his compatriot how things were going at club level to which Mbappe replied: ‘I’m a little fed up’ – as seen on a video captured by FFF TV.
PSG’s dressing room is said to be massively divided at present, particularly between the South American and French contingents since their latest Champions League exit, according to RMC Sport.

This disparity may compound the fact that the Champions League will not be competed for this season.
It has also been suggested that Mbappe might have contemplated dedicating his future to the club if they were competing for the major awards, but it may be tough for PSG to persuade him following their latest Champions League loss at the hands of Real Madrid on Wednesday.Mauricio Pochettino’s team had a 2-0 aggregate lead with half an hour left in their two-legged contest, but they nevertheless conspired to lose the match as Karim Benzema scored a hat-trick to knock them out of the competition.
This was the third occasion in the last six seasons that PSG surrendered an aggregate advantage of at least two goals, having done so against Barcelona in 2017 and Manchester United in 2019.

Mbappe might have committed his future if PSG was competing for the top football prizes.
Mbappe came out of the catastrophic loss on top, scoring in both legs, but the loss may have prompted him to reconsider his future football playing position.
Though PSG leads the league table by 12 points, the club’s efforts to tie the forward down to a new contract will not be aided by PSG’s 3-0 loss to Monaco.
Pogba, like Mbappe, plans to let his contract expire in order to leave Manchester United.

Pogba, a French midfielder, appears set to let his Manchester United contract expire.
French giants PSG have long been linked with a trip to entice Pogba back home, which could explain why Pogba questioned Mbappe about the team.
In recent years, Juventus and Real Madrid have also been linked to the World Cup-winning midfielder.
Pogba just returned to fitness for United after suffering a devastating thigh injury while on international duty with France last year.
So far this season for United, he has made 23 appearances in all competitions and scored one.
