Kylian Mbappe ignites Paris Saint-Germain exit talks

Paris St-Germain’s (PSG) star striker Kylian Mbappe has put his future with the French champions in doubt with his comments after he won the National Union of Professional Footballers’ (UNFP) Ligue 1 Player and Young Player of the Year awards on Sunday.

“I think it’s an important moment for me as I feel I am approaching a first, or second, turning point in my career,” said Mbappe after winning the award, Xinhua news agency reports. Mbappe pipped his team-mate Neymar to claim the award.

“I have discovered a lot of things here and feel it’s perhaps time for greater responsibilities,” he said. Hopefully, it will be at PSG. Or maybe elsewhere with a new project.”
