Speculated to leave Paris Saint-Germain next season, the French star highlighted his pride in representing the club.
“I’m proud to be here (in Paris) since day one. It’s not because there are good and bad times that my pride suffers. The pride of playing for this club, of representing the club from the capital of my country, is something special for me, who grew up here. Living a night like this as a Parisian is great. We’ve taken another step, but we have to stay calm.”
Mbappé took the opportunity to send a message to Parisian fans, congratulating the squad. “I already said that, even if we had lost, I would be proud to be Parisian. Now, of course, on nights like this, the pride is even greater. I wanted to win. Congratulations to the team. It’s for them too, they traveled a lot, they helped us a lot in organizing the game, tickets and everything, it was an ordeal for them.
