Paris St Germain have granted superstar striker Kylian Mbappe permission to talk to Al Hilal after the Saudi Arabian club submitted a world-record £259 million offer (€300m).

The 24-year-old forward has not signed a one-year extension to his existing PSG deal, meaning he will be a free agent next summer and able to walk away for nothing.

Mbappe, who starred in France’s 2018 World Cup success and again as Les Bleus reached the final in Qatar last year, was left out of his club’s squad for a pre-season tour of Japan.
