Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique has outlined the Ligue 1 giants’ extreme Kylian Mbappe rebuild plan, with the French side set to be very active in the summer transfer window.
Mbappe, 25, has confirmed that he will leave PSG when his contract expires at the end of June and a move to Real Madrid is expected to be announced in the coming days.
The France superstar will join a star-studded attack at the Santiago Bernabeu and Los Blancos will head into the 2024-25 season as the favourites for La Liga and the Champions League as a result.

With Mbappe leaving, PSG will lose their all-time record goalscorer and his departure will increase the attacking burden on Goncalo Ramos and Randal Kolo Muani – both of whom have been underwhelming since arrival last summer.
However, Enrique has admitted that PSG will be extremely active in the transfer market, with the club hoping to bolster their entire squad to welcome in a new era following Mbappe’s departure to Real Madrid.

What has Luis Enrique said?
Former Barcelona and Spain boss Enrique told the media (as per Fabrizio Romano): “I can confirm we will sign new players in every position for next season.
“It’s also a message to the players we have in the squad right now, even the best players: next season I want two important players per position. It will be difficult to play for PSG.”
Enrique’s comments suggest PSG will sign at least eight players this summer as they look to move on from Mbappe.
Victor Osimhen has been linked as a striker target, Luis Diaz has been touted as a possible new left winger and Bernardo Silva is a target as a right winger.
However, PSG will also look to sign a goalkeeper, a right-back, a centre-back, a left-back and a central midfielder, as per Enrique’s admission.
