Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic has commented on Kylian Mbappe’s decision to remain in Paris, hinting that the Frenchman did not make the right choice. According to Ibrahimovic, Mbappe is now in a position where he is bigger than the club represents, which cannot stand.
Kylian Mbappe signed a three-year extension (two years, with an option for a third year) with PSG in May 2022, turning down the opportunity to play for Real Madrid. The forward has produced impressive performances on the pitch for the French outfit this season, but there have been reports of him being unhappy in Paris (via ESPN). In October, it was claimed that the player felt betrayed by the club and was seeking a shocking January exit.
Ibrahimovic has shared his two cents on the situation Mbappe finds himself in. According to the Sweden international, Mbappe has grown bigger than the French giants, which is a recipe for disaster. The former PSG striker said (via CANAL+ Foot):
“Mbappe has put himself in a situation where he is more important than the club. But you are never bigger than a club.”
The 2018 World Cup winner has thus far featured in 18 games for the club across competitions, scoring 18 times and claiming five assists.
