Kylian Mbappe Celebrates PSG Exit With A Win, Promises New Club Announcement Soon
Following Paris St Germain’s 2-1 triumph over Olympique Lyonnais in the French Cup final, forward Kylian Mbappe expressed his departure from the Ligue 1 champions with a sense of pride and accomplishment.
Earlier this month, Mbappe revealed his decision to depart the French club after the season, concluding a remarkable seven-year time in which he rose to the position of their leading goal scorer, netting an impressive total of 256 goals.
Mbappe’s final match for the club took place in the final at Lille’s Stade Pierre-Mauroy, where PSG sealed a victory with first-half goals from Ousmane Dembele and Fabian Ruiz.
“It was both difficult and enjoyable because it was a final, and in the end, we won. It’s filled with joy,” Mbappe told reporters. “It’s all good memories, many years, both at PSG and of course in this league. We leave with our heads held high, especially with a trophy, and we only keep the positives.”
Mbappe, who has been strongly linked with a transfer to Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid, responded to inquiries about why he had not disclosed his next destination by stating, “Because I think that the best thing to do is to finish these goodbyes. I think all I wanted was to finish well with my club. There’s a trophy. I think there’s a time for everything. I’ll announce my new club in due course. I think we’re just a few days away, so there’s no problem.”
