What was an open secret, which only needed to be made official, is now confirmed news: Kylian Mbappé announced his departure from PSG after seven seasons and the only thing left to know is whether he will definitely sign with Real Madrid.
“Hello everyone, I’m Kylian. I wanted to talk to you. I always said that I would talk to you when it was appropriate and I want to announce that this is my last year at Paris Saint Germain. I’m not going to renew. The adventure will come to an end in a few weeks,” he indicated in a video that he shared during the night of France on his official social media profiles and that lasted almost 4 minutes.
“I will play my last game at Parque de los Príncipes on Sunday. There are a lot of emotions, many years in which I had the chance and the great honor of being a member of the largest French club, one of the largest in the world, which allowed me to arrive here and have my first experience in a club with a Lots of pressure. To grow as a footballer of course, to be next to some of the best in history, some of the best champions, to meet a lot of people, to grow as a man. With all the glory and the mistakes I made,” he warned in this footage that he published with the motto “Merci” (thank you, in French) and emojis with the colors of PSG.
The decision to communicate this decision now is that the team led by Luis Enrique will play the last game of the season next Sunday (at 4 p.m., Argentina) against Toulouse, in a match valid for the 33rd round of Ligue 1. Then they will face Nice in the French tournament (pending matchday 32) and Metz (matchday 34) between May 15 and 19, but away from home. He could also say goodbye with a title: PSG’s last game of the season will be on Saturday, May 25 against Lyon for the French Cup final at the Pierre-Mauroy Stadium in Lille.
“First of all, I want to thank my teammates, all the teammates I had, all the coaches: Unai Emery, Thomas Tüchel, Mauricio Pochettino, Christophe Galtier and Luis Enrique. The sports directors Leonardo and Luis Campos for always accompanying me. To all the members of the club’s staff, those that no one sees, who are in the shadows, be it the physios, the officials, the development team, the entire staff member office, to everyone on campus. “All those incredible people who give everything to the club and they deserve this recognition,” he clarified, remembering the coaches he had since his arrival in the 2017/18 season after previously shining at Monaco, where he debuted at 16. years.
And he added: “Despite everything that can happen abroad, all this media hype that sometimes surrounds the club, there are some true lovers of the club who want to protect it and make it shine and it’s great, and I know that with all these people “This club is in good hands.”
Although he did not confirm the team to which he will emigrate, he made it clear that his path will be outside his native country and all expectations are now focused on the announcement of his new club. All roads lead to Madrid…
“It is difficult, difficult and I never thought it would be so difficult to announce this about leaving the country, France, Ligue 1, the championship, I always knew it, but I think I needed this, a new challenge after seven years. It’s difficult and of course I want to thank some people above all, those are the fans. I know I’m not the most demonstrative footballer. I was not always up to the love that you gave me in these seven years, but I never sought to deceive you, I always sought to be effective. PSG is a club that never leaves anyone indifferent. We can love it or hate it. “I chose to love him and I did it for seven years with ups and downs, of course, but I do not regret at any time having signed with this prestigious club,” he said.
In total, with the PSG shirt he has so far accumulated 255 goals and 108 assists in 306 appearances: he won 12 titles between Ligue 1, French Cup and League Cup, although he will still have the thorn of not winning the Champions League with that entity. With 26 goals in 28 games, he is the current top scorer in the French tournament.
“It is a club that I will keep in my memory for a lifetime. I will tell everyone, my entire life, that I had the chance to play here and I will no longer be a player, but I will continue watching the games of course because this is a club in which I will always be interested and that I will always be close to because of the news. It was me, with my virtues and defects, but I tried to give the best version of myself during these seven years. But in advance I want to say thank you because without all of you I would never have experienced half of the emotions I felt. And it is precisely for this that I will be grateful for life,” he stated.
