UNFP trophies: Still voted best Ligue 1 player, Kylian Mbappé “has almost made his choice” on his future


Another hat-trick for Kylian Mbappé. Off the field this time. The French striker was crowned, this Sunday, best player in Ligue 1 for the third consecutive season during the UNFP Trophies ceremony. An unprecedented performance for the PSG player, who “almost made his choice” on his future.

Will Kylian Mbappé be in the running to win a 4th trophy next season? You will have to be a little patient to find out. But this soap opera, which has held a large part of the football world in suspense for several months, is soon coming to an end. At the end of the contract in a little over a month with PSG, the prodigy of Bondy would finally have to decide on his future.

“I will give my decision very quickly, it is almost over. My choice is almost made,” he said during the ceremony. If he has not said more, he should reveal his choice, between staying in the French capital or joining Real Madrid, “well before” the next gathering of the France team scheduled for May 28. It could be after the last match of the season, next Saturday, against Metz at the Parc des Princes.

A final meeting to conclude a high-flying season carried out by Mbappé. At 23, he reached a new level and was the basic man of the 10th title of champion of France in the history of PSG with performances which once again earned him the recognition of his peers. “Winning a third time in a row is incredible. Thank you to everyone who voted for me. Thank you to PSG, to all my teammates, the coach and all the people who work behind the scenes and who helped us regain our title. The season has been difficult and we are proud of this tenth title. This year more than ever I have felt the recognition and admiration that great players seek. I always want to win and I’m never satisfied,” he said.

And he could continue to satisfy his appetite a little more by becoming the first to finish top scorer (25 goals) and top assist (17 assists) in the same season. “It is true that it is the stake of the match. Having individual objectives also allows you to pull a team up. If I can grab everything I’m not going to deprive myself. I have very high demands on a personal level, and you have to constantly improve and push the ceiling a little more,” he said. It will then be time to decide on its future. One thing is certain, a departure would leave a big void at PSG, but also in the French championship.
