France forward Kylian Mbappe must sign a new contract if he wants to remain a Paris Saint-Germain player this summer.

With Mbappe reportedly refusing to extend his contract, PSG club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has come out defiantly.

The Qatari supremo states that if Mbappe does not renew, then he will be sold for a mega fee this summer, as PSG have no intention of losing him on a free transfer in a year's time when his contract expires.

"Our position is very clear," said Al-Khelaifi.

"If Kylian Mbappe wants to stay - we want him to stay - he needs to sign a new contract.

"We cannot let the best player in the world right now leave for free. That is impossible.

This is a French club and, as he has said, he is not planning to leave for free.

"If somebody has changed his mind, it is not our fault."
