Kylian Mbappe has reportedly told PSG that he plans to leave the club this summer.
The France international is out of contract at the end of the season and has strongly been linked with a move to Real Madrid.
But it's been suggested recently that Mbappe's camp have been less than convinced by the offer currently on the table, opening the door for other clubs to enter the picture.
With Mbappe set to become a free agent, that puts clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal potentially in the mix to fight for his signature.

Liverpool were among the few clubs who were in contact with the Frenchman before his blockbuster move to PSG in 2017.
If Mohamed Salah departs Anfield with Saudi Arabia expected to try again to sign the Egypt international then Liverpool will want to bring in a superstar replacement.
Mbappe fits that mould, although Liverpool would have to break the bank to meet the attacker's huge wage demands.
It's reported that Mbappe costs PSG around £171million a year, which works out at £3.2m-a-week.
There could also be the option for Mbappe to make the switch to Saudi Arabia as they tried to sign him nearly 12 months ago.
PSG received a world-record bid for the 25-year-old last summer from Al Hilal and the Saudi club were given permission to speak with the striker.
However, Mbappe showed no immediate interest in following former team-mate Neymar to the Saudi Pro League.
Arsenal have also emerged as a potential destination for Mbappe with the striker admitting previously that he held talks with Arsene Wenger.
“Yes, I met with Arsene Wenger, who is a great coach," he said.
"He has a great reputation here in France, he’s well-respected and knows how to develop young players. This was a real option for me.

“But, of course, Paris Saint-Germain was the main option. We weighed up the advantages and disadvantages of all the clubs but my family told me it had to be my decision and one I needed to make.
"It also had to be a long-term decision. So it was up to me and I decided to come here in order to develop.”
Mbappe's future was a topic of discussion on CBS Sport's coverage of the Champions League on Wednesday night with Thierry Henry suggesting he would want his compatriot to join Arsenal.

“I just think that… there was a massive discussion about ‘does Arsenal need a number nine?' Henry said.
"What they needed to do is put the ball in the back of the net.
“When Arsenal does put the ball in the back of the net it’s 6-0.
"In every game it could have been the same – in the cup against Liverpool they didn’t do it, they did it with a bit of help in the league from Liverpool.”
