The heart of the matter

Kylian Mbappe fueled his PSG exit rumours while giving his speech after winning UNFP Ligue 1 Player of the Year accolade.

He said:

"This was the only title that I was missing. I am truly very happy. I want to dedicate it the president, I know that he was affected by a tragedy this year.

"I want to thank all of the people who put together this league. I succeeded in adapting in my first year, to change position this year.

"There were some disappointments, but that is part of football. This is a very important moment for me.

"I am arriving at the second turning point in my career. I have discovered an enormous amount of things here.

"It is maybe the moment to have more responsibilities, maybe at PSG, with pleasure, or elsewhere for a new project. In any case thanks everyone!"

The 20-year old stood by his comments when asked to clarify them after the ceremony.

"I said what I had to say. When you are in such an occasion you can send messages, I think I have sent mine.

"If I speak more it will be too much and that is not the message I wish to ."

What's next?

PSG will square up against Stade Reims at the Stade Auguste-Delaune in their final game of the Ligue 1 season on May 25.
