Mbappe informed Sky Sports that, “Italian football? You never know what happens. I was always saying: if I will go to Italy one day, I will go to Milan. As a kid, I was big fan of AC Milan and I always watch Serie A, every Milan game. All my family, massive Milan fan.”

The story of Kylian Mbappe and PSG now over?

Mbappe already appeared in his final game for PSG, having revealed at the beginning of this month that he would depart after the season, when his contract expires. Mbappe was already dubbed a PSG icon at the age of 25, having finished as the club's all-time top goalscorer with 26 goals. 

He is highly connected with a move to Real Madrid, who are anticipated to make the announcement following their UEFA Champions League semifinal versus Borussia Dortmund. His final game for the club was Saturday's final at Lille's Stade Pierre-Mauroy, which PSG won thanks to goals from Ousmane Dembele and Fabian Ruiz in the first half.
