Real Madrid transfer news: Kylian Mbappe describes rumoured Paris Saint-Germain demands as ‘fake news’

The PSG forward, 20, took issue with a tweet that detailed a series of demands he had reportedly made to his club on Tuesday

Kylian Mbappe has hit out at speculation he provided Paris Saint-Germain with a list of demands ahead of negotiating a new deal with the club, describing the rumours as “fake news”.

The PSG forward, 20, took issue with a tweet that detailed a series of demands he had reportedly made to his club on Tuesday.

“Kylian Mbappe’s representatives have sent a list of demands to PSG’s hierarchy,” the tweet said.

“He must be guaranteed to play up front rather than out wide. He must take all penalties when he’s playing. He must own a far greater percentage of his image rights if he remains at the club.”

However, Mbappe rubbished the speculation in a tweet on Wednesday.

“Sorry you forgot something: Kylian Mbappe wants to play goalkeeper,” he wrote. “FAKE NEWS.”

The forward had earlier distanced himself from rumours of a move to Real Madrid while on international duty with World Cup winners France.

“Now is not the time to talk about Real Madrid,” he said to one reporter.

“You always ask me the same thing, but it's not the time.”

Mbappe enjoyed a fine 2018/19 campaign for PSG, scoring 39 goals in just 43 appearances, including four goals in the Champions League.
