Kylian Mbappé expressed his excitement at officially joining Real Madrid after a successful deal was reached between the club and the French star. Mbappé, who spent seven years at Paris Saint-Germain, described his time at PSG as coming to a somewhat difficult end. His final season at the club was marked by tensions, starting with being left out of a pre-season tour to Japan in July after declining a contract extension.
In February, Mbappé informed PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi of his decision to leave at the end of the season. Despite PSG offering him a lucrative deal, Mbappé chose not to sign an extension, leading to strained relations with the club. His departure from PSG was not marked by any official ceremony, and he faced jeers from some fans during his final home game against Toulouse.
