Mbappe is out of contract in the French capital next year and PSG does not seem ready to risk losing him as a free agent to Real Madrid who is patiently waiting to make an offer next year.
The report released today August 19, 2021, suggested that Mbappe family has already bought a house in Madrid amidst the transfer saga.
Pochettino addressed the issue this afternoon in a press conference saying:
“I think Mbappé is in very good spirits. He is really motivated to have a good season"
He said, "What we are thinking, as I have been saying, is that Kylian is our player and I do not see that he is not here in the season that we started a couple of weeks ago.
“The truth is that I like this period (of the transfer window still being open), that I take it with humour, being positive. This period is part of football.
“There are things that are said and spoken, from experience - some things may or may not be true, but many are not.
“The important thing is that he is calm, the club knows what they are going to do. We know that Kylian is our player, he is calm and preparing for tomorrow's game.
“My conversation with Kylian is always all about football, about what he has to do the next day.
“He has one more year of his contract and if not he renews.
“He is a PSG player, he is happy with us and we are happy with him."
