Kylian Mbappe Tells PSG He Will Leave By End Of Season

Kylian Mbappe Tells PSG He Will Leave By End Of Season
Feb 16 2024 Share

Kylian Mbappe, the French striker for Paris St-Germain, has informed the club of his intention to depart at the end of the season as his contract is set to expire, amid heavy links to Real Madrid. 

Last summer, Mbappe’s future sparked a standoff with PSG, resulting in his temporary exile from the first-team squad. Although an agreement was reached to ensure PSG’s compensation upon his departure, the specifics of his exit remain uncertain, with possibilities including a transfer fee or financial concessions from Mbappe.

PSG, while preferring to retain Mbappe, seem prepared for his departure as they aim to rejuvenate their squad and move away from the ‘Galacticos’ strategy. 

Mbappe’s potential exit comes at a time when PSG leads the French league by 11 points and progresses in domestic and European competitions, showcasing his significant contributions to the team. 

Since joining PSG in 2017, initially on loan before a permanent move, Mbappe has amassed an impressive record of 243 goals and 93 assists in 290 appearances, aiding the club in securing five Ligue 1 titles. 

Despite earlier contractual extensions, Mbappe’s refusal to agree to an additional year prompted his decision to leave, potentially concluding his remarkable tenure with PSG.

Heavy Traffic Reported Around Malta Due To Farmers Protest

Heavy Traffic Reported Around Malta Due To Farmers Protest
Feb 15 2024 Share

Heavy traffic has been reported all around Malta due to the ongoing farmers’ protest. 

Farmers hit to Maltese roads with their tractors, with some coming from Gozo. The tractors are making their way to Valletta, causing massive traffic jams in many of the main streets around the island. 

Organized by the Għaqda Bdiewa Attivi and supported by various other food production-related organizations, the protest aims to build upon the achievements of their initial demonstration held two weeks ago.

Marked as the first organized protest by farmers in a generation, the previous event was part of a larger movement across Europe, where EU farmers voiced their concerns about stringent European regulations and trade agreements that disadvantage them against cheaper foreign produce flooding EU markets.

In anticipation of Thursday’s protest, farmers have stated their intention to present the government with several proposals aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of these EU policies.

The protest is kicked off at 11:45 am, with farmers driving through Attard, the Mrieħel bypass, Marsa-Ħamrun bypass, Aldo Moro Road, Blata l-Bajda, and Floriana, concluding at Triq l-Għassara tal-Għeneb along Valletta’s waterfront. Following this procession, vehicles will be parked, and a press conference is slated to take place around 2 pm.
