Jokes aside, Mbappe is set for a contract extension in June 2022. Though it seems more than likely he will get an extension at PSG as the team looks for the French international to sign his long-term future at the Ligue 1 club he is still free to sign a pre-contractual agreement with a club outside France in January. Most importantly, Mbappe will likely have the option of joining any club in the world as he is so sought after and the Spurs are one club he is least likely to join. They are currently fifth in the Premier League, with no Champions League football, and are at high risk of failing to qualify for next year’s Premier Cup competition. However, the 2018 World Cup winner has been tipped off by intense transfer speculation that has late linking him to Real Madrid. He has also previously expressed a desire to play for the Los Blancos. Mbappe finished ninth in the Ballon d’Or standings, with new team-mate Lionel Messi taking first place after winning the Copa America in Argentina.
