Kylian Mbappé, great goal, another title at PSG and still uncertainties about his future: “I will announce it when I have made my decision”

PSG lifted another trophy, the first of the season and with Luis Enrique as coach, but the flashes were pointing elsewhere. Kylian Mbappé attracted attention not only for his beautiful goal which decorated the 2-0 win over Toulouse and the victory of the French Super Cupat the Parc des Princes, and also from the post-match statements, where he added further uncertainty to what had been a fact since last Monday, when he was free to negotiate with any club to play starting from July 1st.

The striker, whose contract with PSG expires in June 2024, assured after lifting the trophy that he has not yet “chosen” regarding his future. “I haven’t made my choice yet. But we have an agreement with the president that protects all parties”declared Mbappé in the mixed zone after the victory, completed by an early goal from the South Korean Lee Kang In.

“My future is not an internal matter. We have to think about the team”added the 2018 champion and 2022 world runner-up. “I will announce it when I have made my decision”he assured.

To seduce Mbappé, Real Madrid, one of his favorite clubs and which for years has been considered the probable destination of the Frenchman, or Liverpool can give him a list of Champions titles.

“With the agreement with the president last summer my decision matters little, we managed to protect all parties, preserving the serenity of the club for the challenges that await us is the most important thing”explained Mbappé, who would have given up part of his colossal so-called “loyalty” bonuses by shaking hands.

“In 2022 I only knew in May. If I know what I want to do, why delay it? It wouldn’t make sense”he replied, completing the most important thing “it’s the titles, we have a young and determined group that wants to win trophies”.

With this new title, which was initially going to be played in Thailand before the organizers took a step back, PSG won ten of the last eleven French Super Cupsthis time in an almost full Parc des Princes for the clash against the current champion of the French Cup, although many Parisian and Toulouse fans opted for for some they won’t go to the stadium because the tickets are too expensive, for others because they will be playing at their rivals’ home..

“Messi is always missing”

Mbappé also admitted that he would like to be able to play alongside the Argentine star again. Lionel Messiwith whom he shared a team at PSG and praised his footballing qualities. “You always miss playing with Messi. For a striker like me who likes to enter spaces, with him you go with the certainty of being able to have the ball. It was a luxury that almost only he could grant you”Mbappé said in statements to Prime Video Sport France.

“Playing with Messi was really special”has indicated.

Messi and Mbappé shared a team between 2021 and 2023. In that period they showed affinity on the pitch, with successive assists. The final of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, which declared Argentina champion after 36 years, saw them as rivals, but there was no shortage of signs of mutual respect and admiration.
