Kylian Mbappe recently celebrated with the French Cup trophy before announcing his move to Real Madrid. The 25-year-old attacker revealed that his time at Paris Saint-Germain had been marred by unhappiness due to certain circumstances and individuals within the club. Despite winning titles with PSG, Mbappe felt that he needed a change and signed a five-year deal with the La Liga champions.
During PSG’s tour of Japan and South Korea last summer, tensions arose between Mbappe and the club’s management after he expressed his desire to leave. He recounted feeling threatened and disrespected by certain people at the club. However, he made it clear that he was grateful for the opportunities he had received at PSG and did not want to discredit those who had supported him.
Mbappe credited Spanish coach Luis Enrique and advisor Luis Campos for being instrumental in his career. He mentioned that without them, he may not have continued playing. Despite his success in France, Mbappe expressed disappointment in not being able to secure a Champions League title for PSG, a goal that remains unfulfilled for the club.
As Mbappe prepares to join Real Madrid, he emphasized his commitment to the French national team and his role as captain. With Euro 2024 on the horizon, he aims to focus on his duties with the national team and protect them from distractions. Looking ahead to the tournament, Mbappe is determined to lead his country to further success on the international stage.
