Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappe has officially announced his departure from the club, ending months of speculation about his future. The French forward will join Real Madrid as a free agent, leaving the Parisian club after seven seasons.
Mbappe made the announcement in an emotional video posted on social media, in which he thanked the PSG fans, his teammates, and the club staff. He also apologized to the fans for not always living up to their expectations.
‘It’s difficult, it’s difficult and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce this, to leave my country – France, to leave Ligue 1, a league that I have always known but I think that I needed this – a new challenge after this year,’ Mbappe said in the video.
‘It’s difficult and there are people that I want to thank above all – the supporters. I know that I am not the most demonstrative player, I have not always lived up to the love that you all gave me over the course of these seven years, but I never wanted to cheat. I always wanted to be effective.’
Mbappe’s departure marks the end of PSG’s ‘galactico’ era, which also saw the departures of Lionel Messi and Neymar in recent years. The club has failed to reach the Champions League final in recent seasons, and Mbappe’s exit will be a blow to their hopes of winning the competition for the first time.
For Mbappe, it will be a new challenge. He has spent his entire professional career at PSG, and he will now have to prove himself in a new league and a new country. Real Madrid is one of the biggest clubs in the world, and Mbappe will be expected to play a key role in their success.
It will be interesting to see how Mbappe performs at Real Madrid. He is one of the most talented players in the world, and he has the potential to become one of the best players in history. However, he will need to adapt to a new league and a new style of play, and he will need to be consistent in his performances. If he can do that, then Real Madrid could be on the verge of a new era of success.
