Paris Saint-Germain is preparing for a crucial meeting with its co-star Kylian Mbappe in the next few hours.
Mbappe's name was linked to a move to Real Madrid, having concluded an agreement with the Meringi attempts last year, before renewing his contract with Paris, and then renewing to leave for the Santiago Bernabeu this year.
"The meeting is scheduled to take place tomorrow, Friday, between Mbappe's representatives in the presence of his mother, Faiza al-Amari, with Nasser al-Khelaifi, president of Saint-Germain."
"The meeting is expected to resolve Kylian Mbappe's fate, which could move to Real Madrid as early as this summer."
The 24-year-old had informed the Parisian administration in an official letter of his desire not to extend his contract beyond the summer of 2024 and indicated that he was determined to stay in Saint-Germain during the coming season.

Despite the final agreement, Barcelona retracts the Atletico deal
According to press reports, Barcelona renegade on a deal it had previously agreed with Atletico Madrid.
Barsa agreed with Atletico last January to include Belgian Yannick Carrasco for 16 million euros this summer, as part of a swap deal during which the Dutch moved Memphis Depay to the Madrid club.
The Catalan newspaper Sport reported that Carrasco's purchase clause should be activated before 30 June, while numerous reports said that Atletico had given Barcelona a timeout at the end of the current month, tomorrow, to complete the process.
However, Blaugrana does not plan to activate Carrasco's purchase option clause before June 30.
There had been no contact in recent days between Barcelona and Atletico, and no negotiations had been planned, making it impossible for him to join Parsa.
The paper revealed that to include Carrasco, Barcelona must leave Ansu Fati or Ferran Torres, two players who do not intend to leave, and that the Catalan club's management considers Carrasco's high price for a player whose contract expires in the summer of 2024 and has no intention of renewal.
