Mbappé announces that he will not renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain

Striker Kylian Mbappé finally announced his decision not to renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain. The 25-year-old player published a video on social media this Friday, saying goodbye to the fans and thanking him for the seven years spent at the French club. The star arrived at PSG in August 2017 for 180 million euros.

Though cars from Spain and France, as well as football transfer expert journalist Fabrizio Romano, assure fans that Mbappé will go to Real Madrid, a team that attempted to sign him a few years ago, his future is still unknown. That prospect recently became a free agent, starting on July 1st.

The striker’s farewell at Parc des Princes will be this Sunday, against Toulouse, in the French Championship. It is worth remembering that Paris Saint-Germain was already crowned champion of the competition at the end of last month, after Monaco’s 3-2 defeat to Lyon, and will have three more matches this season—against Nice, Metz, and Lyon—all away from home.

I didn’t think this would be so difficult to announce—to leave my country, France, Ligue 1, a championship that I’ve always known—but I think I needed it—a new challenge after these seven years here, said Mbappé in the speech.

In February, Mbappé informed PSG’s board and teammates that he would leave the club at the end of the season, according to the French press. Real Madrid is the big favorite to have the striker from then on and, according to Spanish portals, will announce the French star after the Champions League final.

Mbappé will say goodbye to PSG after seven years at the club, in which he played 443 games and scored 328 goals. The French team even announced this Friday the new line of uniforms for next season without the French star, with an indication that he would not renew with the club.
