French football sensation Kylian Mbappe recently returned to his former home ground, the Parc des Princes, as he trained with the national team ahead of their UEFA Nations League match against Italy. The 25-year-old captain of France, renowned for his exceptional dribbling, speed, and finishing skills, spent seven successful years at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), leaving an indelible mark on the club’s history.
During his time at PSG, Mbappe scored an impressive 256 goals and provided 108 assists in 308 appearances, helping secure six Ligue 1 titles and four Coupe de France trophies. As he reflected on his journey at the club, Mbappe shared emotional memories of his time at PSG, saying, “I spent a lot of years here. It’s the place I know best from my career at the moment. I have nothing but great memories.”
Despite his achievements, Mbappe’s exit from PSG in July was marred by controversy, as he faced criticism for his decision to join Real Madrid. Addressing the transition, Mbappe expressed his happiness with his new club, saying, “I’m very happy to be in Madrid… we have already won a trophy.” The French forward also emphasized his drive to succeed, following France’s defeat by Spain in the Euro 2024 semifinals. “All my career, I have hated losing… now I am back in that mindset of hating failure.”
As France gears up for the new season, Mbappe’s focus remains on leading his team to victory. With his exceptional skills and leadership qualities, he is poised to make a significant impact on the international stage. His reflections on his time at PSG serve as a reminder of his growth and dedication to the sport.
