PSG's Failure In Champions League Convinced Kylian Mbappe To Move To Real Madrid?

JAKARTA - Kylian Mbappe spoke about his future at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) after his team was eliminated from the 2022/2023 Champions League competition.

In the second leg meeting of the last 16 of the Champions League, Thursday, March 9, early morning WIB, Les Parisiens lost 0-2 to Bayern Munich. This result knocked them out of the Big Ears trophy hunt.

This further strengthens PSG's curse in the Champions League. Last season they also crashed in the round of 16 after losing to Real Madrid.

This failure has made rumors about Mbappe's future with Les Parisiens re-emerging. It is said that the French national team player will leave his club and accept a proposal from Real Madrid.

Mbappe's contract will actually expire in June 2025. However, the opportunity to move to the Santiago Bernabeu next season remains open.

Mbappe admits failure in the Champions League is a disappointing result. He admitted that he did not know how long this failure would end.

However, he emphasized that he was not thinking too much about other things for now, including his future.

"So far I'm still focused on living this season. That's the most important thing, I don't care about the other things," Mbappe said as quoted by Marca, Thursday, March 9.

"Will I consider my future? No, no. So far I'm happy. The most important thing for me this season is to win the league, after that we'll see," he continued, implying his future.

Mbappe said PSG had Ligue 1 to win and hoped his team could become champions.

"Bayern built a team to win the Champions League. As for PSG, this is our maximum step. We will question our own abilities," said Mbappe.
