PSG super star Kylian Mbappe, Friday, announced his exit from the club at the end of the season. Mbappe’s foray in the club lasted seven years.
His contract will expire in June, and he has declared he won’t renew the deal. He announced his exit in a video on his social media account.
According to him, “I’ve always said that I would speak with you when the time comes. It’s my last year at Paris St-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks.”
Mbappe is leaving PSG as the club’s record top scorer with 255 goals in all competitions. He will make his final Ligue 1 appearance for the club against Metz on May 19. The 25-year-old described the opportunity to represent PSG as a great honour.
“It’s a lot of emotions. Many years I had the chance and the great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world.
“It allowed me to arrive here, to have my first experience in a club with a lot of pressure, to grow as a player of course, by being alongside some of the best in history, some of the greatest champions.
“It’s hard, and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that. But I think I needed this, a new challenge, after seven years.”
Mbappe joined PSG from Monaco in 2017 for a reported fee of £165.7m.
He is expected to join Real Madrid and the announcement will take place after the Champions League final.
