with the player already reportedly in talks over a deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The France skipper has been the centre of controversy this summer at the Ligue 1 champions, having seemingly ruled out the possibility of extending his current contract, which is up at the end of the 2023-24 season.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the Parisian club made it clear that if the player was unwilling to commit his immediate future to their cause, he would have to look for a new club &#8211; only the player was unwilling to do so.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He looked set to be frozen out, before a return to the fold late in the summer has seen him once again front and centre of all things PSG, scoring five goals in four games already this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, though, French outlet L&#8217;Equipe report that PSG are not giving up hope of tying their superstar down to another deal and seeing him stay on at the club &#8211; thereby handing a bitter blow to Real Madrid who have long been suitors for Mbappe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/05\/08\/75068727-12481577-image-a-2_1693899169559.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Nasser Al-Khelaifi (left) and Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly hopeful of extending Kylian Mbappe&#8217;s (right) contract<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/05\/08\/75068729-12481577-image-a-1_1693899169555.jpg\" height=\"430\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The French skipper has been in great form at the start of 2023-24, scoring five goals in four games<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/05\/08\/75068725-12481577-image-a-3_1693899169560.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Carlo Ancelotti&#8217;s Real Madrid have long been linked with a move for the PSG talisman<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Reports claim that there are now several factors going PSG&#8217;s way that are giving president Nasser Al-Khelaifi greater optimism, with Fabrizio Romano also adding that the player has already entered talks with PSG.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For one, the club has seen two high-profile departures this summer, namely Neymar and Lionel Messi.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The former&#8217;s relationship with Mbappe had soured, and was recently sold to Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Hilal for \u00a378million, while the latter had become a rival to Mbappe for the spotlight at PSG, before his departure for the MLS and Inter Miami.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, Les Parisiens have brought in a number of Mbappe&#8217;s Les Bleus team-mates, such as Lucas Hernandez, Randal Kolo Muani and Ousmane Dembele &#8211; something that is thought to have appeased the 24-year-old.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Thirdly, his younger brother, Ethan, has recently emerged as a first-team squad member, much to Mbappe&#8217;s pleasure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, easing tensions between Mbappe and Al-Khelaifi &#8211; who referred to him as just &#8216;The French Captain&#8217; in one squad address &#8211; are thought to be a factor in potentially paving the way for new talks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, as ever with PSG, the real key to keeping Mbappe at the club will lie in a strong Champions League run this term.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The French titans were drawn in the competition&#8217;s &#8216;Group of Death&#8217; this season, and will face Borussia Dortmund, AC Milan and Newcastle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/05\/08\/75068995-12481577-image-a-4_1693899446642.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Luis Enrique has plenty of Champions League experience, winning the Treble with Barcelona in 2014-15<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/05\/08\/75068999-12481577-image-a-5_1693899449220.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The departures of Lionel Messi (left) and Neymar (right) have reportedly paved the way for Mbappe to stay at PSG<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/05\/08\/75069001-12481577-image-a-6_1693899451429.jpg\" height=\"397\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The French superstar&#8217;s younger brother Ethan (left) has recently emerged as a first-team squad member<\/p>\n<p>Yet their new manger, Luis Enrique, does have plenty of experience in the competition, winning a Treble with Barcelona in 2014-15, and his new employers will hope he can mastermind a convincing case to their wantaway talisman.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Mbappe saga has been one of the stories of the off-season, with plenty of speculation arising over the player&#8217;s immediate future with Real Madrid constantly linked with a move for the star.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, having bankrolled a move for Jude Bellingham this summer, it was unlikely that Los Blancos would have made an offer this summer, preferring to get their man for free next summer &#8211;
