Luis Enrique gives biggest hint yet that Kylian Mbappe will leave PSG to join Real Madrid
Kylian Mbappe took center stage for Paris Saint-Germain in their recent triumph over Real Sociedad, securing a 2-1 victory that solidified a 4-1 aggregate triumph and propelled them into the Champions League quarter-finals.
In a stellar performance, the 24-year-old forward, gracing Spanish turf for the first time this season, showcased his brilliance by netting both goals for the French giants. These goals bore the hallmarks of Mbappe’s distinctive style, underlining his pivotal role in PSG’s success. Remarkably, he accounted for three of the four goals scored by PSG throughout the tie, underscoring his status as the decisive factor.
Despite swirling rumors about his future, Mbappe has maintained an exceptional level of performance on the pitch. Speculation has been rife that he will depart PSG at the end of the season when his contract expires, with Real Madrid emerging as the likely destination.
While no official confirmation has surfaced, the prevailing sentiment suggests an imminent departure. Even PSG’s head coach, Luis Enrique, hinted at this possibility during a post-match interview with Canal+. He acknowledged, “Apparently his immediate future will not be here, so that’s why we will have to test with other teammates.”
The timing of Mbappe’s announcement regarding his future remains uncertain. Although an agreement with Real Madrid is yet to be finalized, expectations are high that developments will unfold in the coming weeks.
