Why Mbappe makes surprise visit to Arsenal’s medical room, as a Gunners supporter asked him: “Come to Arsenal, we’ll look after you”
Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe has rejected the possibility of joining Arsenal this summer.
After years of speculation about his future, Mbappe is expected to leave the French champions at the end of the season.
The 2018 World Cup winner has reportedly informed the club that he does not intend to extend his current contract, which expires at the end of June.
Although no official statement has been made, Mbappe is expected to join Real Madrid on a free transfer ahead of the 2024-25 season.
Although Mbappe is believed to have swapped Paris for the Spanish capital, he has also been linked with a move to the Premier League.
Last month, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta stressed that the Gunners should be “in the game” to sign a player of Mbappe’s calibre.
But the PSG striker has now apparently ruled out the possibility of joining the north London club if a move to Real Madrid does not materialise.
In a video posted on social media, a Gunners fan asked Mbappe: “Come to Arsenal, we will take care of you.” The 25-year-old said in response. No chance, no chance.”
Mbappe then added: “It’s too cold there” when asked why he would not consider signing for Arsenal at the end of the season.
