According to Le Parisien, the record Ligue 1 champions are looking to make a profit on Mbappe in this window and have placed a massive €200 million (R4.1 billion) price tag on the superstar Frenchman.
The attacker was transfer-listed by the club after he refused to commit his long-term future to the side, and with Real Madrid rumoured to be preparing a bid, the Spaniards will need to come close to a world-record transfer fee if they are to successfully lure him to the Santiago Bernabeu in the coming weeks.

The Spanish capital has been highly touted as the forward's preferred destination, but it appears the French champions' asking price may be beyond what Los Blancos are willing to pay – couple the €200 million fee with the player's wages and bonuses, and bringing the Bondy native to Madrid this off-season could be too costly for Florentino Perez and his executives.
The abovementioned French publication adds that Perez hopes that, with all costs included, the expenditure needed to bring the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner to the home of the 14-time UEFA Champions League winners will not exceed €200 million.
The 24-year-old is believed to be training away from the first team, with other players PSG have placed on the transfer list as they look to plan for life without their talisman.
