The France international, Kylian Mbappe has revealed that he will leave PSG this summer, reportedly to join Real Madrid. The Spanish heavyweights have long been connected with an offer for the FIFA World Cup winner, but it now appears that the transaction will be completed when the transfer window opens and his contract ends.

The French superstar's farewell game for PSG will be an away match against Nice on May 15. Mbappe will play his final match at the Parc des Princes in Paris on Sunday, May 12.

He posted a video on all of his accounts on social media as he said, "I wanted to speak to you. I've always said that I would speak with you when the time comes and so I wanted to announce to you all that it's my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game at Parc des Princes on Sunday."

The Paris Saint-Germain attacker added, “I have a lot of emotions. I had the chance and the great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world, which allowed me to arrive here and have my first experience in a club with a lot of pressure. To grow as a player, of course, by being alongside some of the best (players) in history. Some of the greatest champions. To meet a lot of people and to grow as a man as well with all the glory and the mistakes I’ve made.”
