In the wake of Paris Saint-Germain’s victory in the Champions Trophy, Kylian Mbappé appeared before the press to discuss his future.
His speeches are rare. Kylian Mbappé had hardly mentioned his situation at Paris Saint-Germain since last summer, and the Bondynois presented himself in the mixed zone on Wednesday evening at the Parc des Princes, after PSG’s victory against Toulouse (2-0) during the Champions Trophy. While he is officially authorized to discuss with other clubs, six months before the end of his contract, the Parisian number 7 did not dodge questions about his future, citing an agreement made with his club.
“Already, I am very motivated for this year. It’s very important, we have titles to go after. We have already collected one. But, no, I haven’t made my decision yet, confided Mbappé in front of the microphones, relays Culture PSG. I haven’t made a choice yet. I think that with the agreement reached with the president (Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, editor’s note) this summer, whatever my decision, we have succeeded in protecting all parties and preserving the serenity of the club for the challenges to come . It is the most important. The rest is secondary. »
What agreement is Mbappé talking about? Last summer, when PSG wanted to sell him if he did not extend, the 2018 world champion found common ground with his club, probably agreeing to certain efforts on the financial level.
Mbappé: “No one talks about my situation inside the club”
We are starting to get used to the Mbappé soap operas, and the current situation resembles that of two years ago, with a player completely free to move, and who has a decision to make. The previous time, the verdict came late. What will happen this time?
“ It was the end of May in 2022 because I didn’t know before, replies Mbappé. If I know what I want to do, I’m not going to hang around. It wouldn’t make any sense. As I said, the most important are the titles. We won one and we have a young group that wants to win trophies. The team and the group are looking towards that. Today, no one talks about my situation inside the club. Not many people are interested. What people are interested in is that I can help the team win trophies like I did today. »
