Kylian Mbappe hints he could snub Real Madrid, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain to stay at Monaco on Instagram

Superstar striker's future may have taken another twist, with latest post indicating he is making return to Ligue 1 champions

KYLIAN MBAPPE has given another hint about where his future lies — this time that he could be staying at Monaco.

The 18-year-old is one of the most sought-after players in world football, with Real Madrid, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain all keen on his signing.

His recent social media activity seemed to suggest he was leaving as he removed any mention of Principality side on his profiles.

However, he has now given a hint he could stay at the Stade Louis II by posting a picture of himself on Instagram along with the caption: “On my way back to Monaco" — and he even translated it into Spanish and English to ensure all his admirers understood.

Mbappe shot to prominence after he burst onto the scene with goals in each of his first four Champions League games.

He helped fire Monaco to a first Ligue 1 title in 17 years and became the club’s youngest-ever player — breaking Thierry Henry’s record.

Zinedine Zidane is so desperate to get him to Real Madrid that he is reported to have told him he would be willing to get rid of one of Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale or Karim Benzema to accommodate him.

While Arsenal were thought to be preparing a world-record £125million bid.

However, PSG have stated they would match any rival side’s bid.

Monaco boss Leonardo Jardim admitted he is preparing for life without his young striker.

Mbappe is one of a number players from the Ligue 1 champions who has been chased by Europe’s top clubs this summer.

Bernardo Silva has joined Manchester City, while Fabinho, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Bernard Mendy and Thomas Lemar are all wanted men.
