<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/kylian-mbappe-psg-exit-real-madrid-transfer-summer/blt0babc3165af5d51f" target="_blank">The Frenchman announced on social media</a> that he will play his final game for the Ligue 1 champions this weekend before departing the club after seven years. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-told-99-percent-chance-kylian-mbappe-completes-summer-transfer-la-liga-president-javier-tebas-psg-superstar/bltc49c45bb55a533e5" target="_blank">Mbappe is set to join Real Madrid as a free agent</a> and his departure will reportedly free up over €200m for summer transfers, which will be invested straight back into the squad.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>A post on X from journalist Ben Jacobs said: "Understand PSG have freed up €225m-gross from Kylian Mbappe’s departure, including taxes and social security. A significant portion of this will be put towards multiple players this summer as part of the club’s continued squad revamp and investment in young talent."</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Understand PSG have freed up €225m-gross from Kylian Mbappe’s departure, including taxes and social security.

WHAT THE REPORTS SAID

<p>After losing Lionel Messi in 2023, PSG are having to go through the pain of losing their second big star in as many years. While they will have the funds to rebuild, it is going to be difficult to build a squad capable of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/kylian-mbappe-psg-exit-real-madrid-transfer-summer/blt0babc3165af5d51f" target="_blank">competing with the club Mbappe is heading to</a>. The Parisians are always expected to win Ligue 1 but they are yet to win the Champions League and the path to European glory is going to become a lot more difficult with the 25-year-old departing.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Napoli's Victor Osimhen is the top target to replace Mbappe. However, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/revealed-why-victor-osimhen-willing-to-reject-psg-transfer-in-favour-of-arsenal-or-chelsea/bltae3da3e226288c1a">reports suggest the Nigerian may snub PSG in favour of a move to the Premier League</a>. PSG will need to bring in one star name to soften the blow of their departing talisman but they may face hefty competition from Europe's top clubs for one of the best strikers in the world.</p>
