French superstar Kylian Mbappe was reinstated in Paris Saint-Germain's first team on Sunday after being sidelined for several weeks amid an ongoing contract dispute.
PSG opened their Ligue 1 title defence with a goalless draw at home against Lorient on Saturday as the team's prize asset watched from the stands.
After a summer of flux at the Parc des Princes filled with new arrivals and Lionel Messi's departure, it is the Mbappe stand-off that continues to dominate the headlines.
Qatari-owned PSG want to sell him now and bring in a significant transfer fee for a player who cost 180 million euros ($198 million) from Monaco in 2017.
"The position is very clear. If Kylian wants to stay, he must sign a new contract. We can't let the best player in the world today leave for free. It's impossible," PSG president Nasser al-Khelaifi said last month.
However, according to 'L'Equipe', renewal negotiations are still ongoing and the 24-year-old is likely to stay at the Parc des Princes this summer.
With his reinstatement, Mbappe has partly won his case, even if it is too early to know if it will lead to the contract extension the club are demanding. Saturday's offensive weaknesses against Lorient may have prompted PSG to soften their attitude towards the top scorer in the club's history.
The forward is now available for the trip to Toulouse on 19th August, even if he has played just once, a friendly against Le Havre, in the past two months.
