In the French Suρer Cup match held this morning between Paris Saint-Germain and Toulouse, the reigning Ligue 1 champions had no difficulty in defeating their opponents, securing their first title of 2024. As usual, Kylian Mbappe shone brightly with a superb curling shot, sealing a 2-0 victory for the team at Parc des Princes.
The Toulouse defenders tried to block the path of the 1998-born star, but it was not enough to stop Kylian Mbappe from finding the back of Guillaume Restes’ net. The opposition players knew they should have made a greater effort to keep up with the French captain when he doubled PSG’s lead.
Although we have entered the new year, Mbappe’s form and status at Paris Saint-Germain remain unchanged. Despite the departures of Lionel Messi and Neymar in the past summer transfer window, and the arrival of expensive stars like Ousmane Dembele, Randal Kolo Muani, and Goncalo Ramos, it is still Kylian Mbappe who shoulders the attacking responsibility for the Parisian club.
At Paris Saint-Germain, Mbappe has shown impressive goal-scoring form since the start of the season, being the destination for every ball. Regardless of who comes and goes, the 25-year-old French forward remаins the number one hope in the attacking line, a pillar of trust for fans and teammates in important matches.
Entering the new year, the expectations placed on Mbappe are even higher, perhaps even greater. French fans hope that Kylian Mbappe will shine brightly at EURO 2024 and lead “Les Bleus” to victory in the tournament taking place in Germany during the summer. The “Gaulish rooster” believes that the 1998-born forward has the ability to bring home the silverware.
Since January 1st, Mbappe is free to negotiate transfers with any club. The “love triangle” between Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain remаins a topic of discussion across various media outlets. It is undeniable that Real Madrid is eager to secure the services of the French star.
It has been said that joining Real Madrid is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but that train has regularly stopped in Paris since 2017, waiting for Kylian Mbappe’s nod. It is possible that the 25-year-old striker will eventually move to “Los Blancos,” but it will be because he wants to.
Paris Saint-Germain is keen to keep their iconic figure at the club, so we’ll have to wait and see what they do next. As for Mbappe himself, he likely has made his decision. For now, the player wearing the number 7 jersey will fully focus on football and help PSG win major titles in the current season.
