Real Madrid president Florentino Perez insisted that Kylian Mbappe has already been “forgotten” by the club after they defeated Liverpool in the Champions League final.
Vinicius Junior scored the only goal of the game, two minutes before the hour mark, to seal the Spanish giant’s 14 th Champions League title and ensure that an incredible season for the Reds ended with disappointment. It came less than a week after Jurgen Klopp’s side narrowly missed out on the Premier League title to Manchester City.
Yet for Real Madrid, it capped a wonderful season after they secured their 35 th La Liga a month and they have now clinched both domestic and European glory. In-between those success, the club did taste defeat on one front: their pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe.
