«Things and people made me unhappy» - Mbappe on his PSG departure
France forward Kylian Mbappe recently opened up about his final year at Paris St-Germain, stating that "things and people made me unhappy" during his time at the club. Despite being PSG's all-time leading goalscorer, Mbappe, 25, will join Real Madrid on a five-year deal when his contract with Paris St-Germain expires on 30 June.

The standoff and separation from the first team
Mbappe refused to sign a one-year extension to his contract last August, leading to a standoff that saw him train away from the first team. Reflecting on his experience, Mbappe said, "At PSG, I wasn't unhappy; that would be biting the hand that feeds you and spitting in the face of all the people who defended me. But things and people made me unhappy."



He added, "But there are things that you can't show because I was a leader, and you don't follow someone who drags their sadness around."

Praise for PSG management
Mbappe expressed gratitude towards PSG boss Luis Enrique and adviser Luis Campos, crediting them with keeping him on the field. "Without them, I would never have set foot on the field again," he stated on the eve of France's friendly with Luxembourg in Metz.

"I'm more proud of that season when I know everything I had to go through to play. It was lower in my standards, but just playing, repeating matches, and winning trophies was my greatest pride. But next year, I won't be satisfied with a season like that."


Looking forward to a fresh start
Mbappe helped PSG secure six Ligue 1 titles, but he is eagerly anticipating a fresh start at newly-crowned Champions League winners Real Madrid. "It's a huge pleasure and a dream come true," he said. "It's the club where I always dreamed of being. I'm going there with a lot of excitement and a lot of humility."
