Has Kylian Mbappe Decided To Stay At PSG?

There have been speculations surrounding the future of Kylian Mbappe since the Frenchman announced that he would be leaving PSG by the end of the season.

The 2018 World Cup winner looks set to join Spanish heavyweight Real Madrid by the end of the season, but PSG is hoping that after a huge win in the quarterfinals of the Champions League against Barcelona, he will change his mind.

Mbappe scored twice as PSG overturned a one-goal deficit from the first leg in Paris to beat Barcelona 4-1 (6-4 aggregate) at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys on Tuesday.

Despite the win, Mbappe has insisted on leaving the French capital club. When asked by reporters if the victory against Barca had changed his mind, Mbappe was quick to say, “No, no.”

“This huge win will not change my decision on the future,” the French national team captain said.
“I’m proud to wear PSG; I’m Parisien, and I dream to win Champions League with PSG, and we try for Wembley.”

PSG manager Luis Enrique hailed Mbappe’s performance in Tuesday night’s win and described him as a “proper leader from the beginning to the end.”

Recall that in March, Enrique said he hoped that his star man would change his mind and stay in Paris.

“I still hope that Kylian changes his mind. He hasn’t said anything at the moment; he can change his opinion,” Enrique said.

“Let’s imagine that we win all four titles this season and that Kylian makes his decision at the last moment… that his place is in Paris. Why not? We’ll see.”

PSG looks set to win all four titles, but Mbappe seems keen on a move away from Parc des Princes.
