Mbappe left out of Paris Saint Germain's pre-season tour

Kylian Mbappe has been left out of Paris Saint Germain's pre-season tour of Japan.

The squad that will accompany new boss Luis Enrique on the plane on Saturday was announced on Friday evening, with Mbappe’s name conspicuous by its absence.

The France star revealed earlier this summer that he would not sign a new contract at the Parc des Princes.

Mbappe added that he was planning to play for PSG during the forthcoming season to see out his deal but that would mean him leaving for free in 2024.

However, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that the striker's lack of communication with the club over his future means he is now up for sale this summer.

Mbappe, who has been strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid, did play for PSG in a friendly against Le Havre on Friday, scoring the second goal in a 2-0 victory.

His 16-year-old brother Ethan is included in the touring squad along with star names like Neymar, whose future has also been the subject of speculation.

PSG will play matches against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr side and Cerezo Osaka in Osaka next week.

After those two matches, they take on Inter Milan in Tokyo on August 1 and South Korean side Jeonbuk Motors two days later.

The French champions then kick off their 2023-24 Ligue 1 campaign on August 13 with a home match against Lorient — and it looks unlikely that Mbappe will feature at the Parc des Princes.
