Kylian Mbappe has promised he will not leave Paris Saint-Germain for Real Madrid in the January transfer window.
Mbappe has just six months left to run on his contract and was the subject of a big-money bid from Los Blancos in August, but PSG rejected that interest.
The 23-year-old says he has no intention of jumping ship in mid-season, however, and is focused on winning more silverware in the French capital.
“No, I’m not joining Real Madrid in January,” Mbappe told CNN. “In January it’s not happening.
“I’m in Paris Saint-Germain, I’m really happy, and I will 100 per cent finish the season as a PSG player. I’ll give everything to win with Paris all titles this year.
“I will give everything I have to win the Champions League, the league and the cup. And to give all the pleasure to the fans, because they deserve it.
“I’m happy to stay. It’s my city too. I’m French. I want to win everything this season.”
The Ligue 1 giants are hopeful France striker Mbappe will agree a contract extension but risk losing him on a free transfer should he refuse a new deal.
PSG and Madrid meet over two legs in the Champions League round of 16 and Mbappe assured fans he remains fully committed to helping his current employers overcome prospective ones.
Following the new draw, @PSG_English will face @realmadriden in the Last 16 of the @ChampionsLeague
