Welcome into the latest edition of ESPN FC. I'm Dan Thomas joined by Alan Rennell and

0:08.6

Shackah. We also welcome to the show Juliane LeRone as is Lewis Garci. Now our plan was

0:15.0

to start by reflecting on Manchester City's celebrations and paint review to Jack

0:19.3

Grealis. Yes. But instead breaking news coming out of Paris regarding Killian in Bappé's

0:24.9

feature at PSG, what is that news, Jaws? Yes. Just breaking out on this Le Kipp news paper

0:33.3

revealing that Killian in Bappé send a letter to PSG today to make clear. I think they

0:39.8

kind of hinted it before with the club, but to make clear that he would not trigger the

0:46.8

extent, the extension year that he has on his contract, which means that he will be out of

0:51.3

contract next summer. So in the summer 2024 and from January the first he would be able to

1:26.7

So it looks like this is another of our special sagas of the summers. We've had many in the past,

1:31.8

we've been Bappé or others, and it looks like we have another one for this year.

1:42.6

Don't blame Jaws.

1:44.5

I mean, from the beginning that extension and the huge contract and him being at the project of

1:54.2

everything we've said, it was never really clear at the beginning if he was a 3-year deal, a 2 plus 1

1:59.2

year deal, who could trigger what, what option, when, and he became quite clear later that Killian was

2:06.8

the only one to be able to trigger that third year in the contract. It was basically a 2-year deal
