It’s been reported that Kylian Mbappé plans to depart Paris Saint-Germain this summer once his contract with the club expires. He has apparently informed club president Nasser Al Khelaifi of his intention to leave as a free agent.
There isn’t a single player out there who can replace the Frenchman by themselves. It will require a team effort to fill the void left by their star player. However, PSG has already pinpointed players who can contribute to filling the gap once Mbappé departs.
According to a report from Loïc Tanzi of L’Equipe, PSG is focusing on Victor Osimhen as their top target for the upcoming summer transfer window in their search for attacking options.
Osimhen, the Nigerian striker, seems open to the idea of returning to Ligue 1. Additionally, there are rumors circulating about PSG’s interest in Mohamed Salah.

PSG might find themselves with extra funds if the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner decides to move on. According to journalist Ben Jacobs, one possibility is to prolong his contract and then consider selling Mbappé, potentially to Real Madrid or another undisclosed club.
