Guess who's back at the Parc des Princes? 🤩 French football superstar Kylian Mbappé made a sensational return to his old stomping ground on Thursday, gearing up with the national team for a thrilling UEFA Nations League showdown against Italy this Friday.
Mbappé, who lit up the pitch for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) over seven unforgettable years, amassed a jaw-dropping 256 goals and 108 assists in just 308 games! 🏆🔥 His time at PSG was nothing short of legendary, helping the club clinch six Ligue 1 titles and four Coupe de France trophies, among other accolades.
But after making the big move to Real Madrid in July, things got a bit spicy 🌶️ between Mbappé and PSG. The split wasn't exactly smooth, with some fans and the club expressing their disappointment over his departure.
Returning to the Parc des Princes stirred up a mix of emotions for Mbappé. \"It's special, I spent a lot of years here. I have so many memories; it's the place I know best from my career at the moment,\" he shared. \"I have nothing but great memories here, with my family, with all the teammates I've had, with the club—it's great. I don't expect much, I don't care. The most important thing is to win, to really get the new season off to a good start, to be able to start off on a positive note.\"
We can't wait to see Mbappé bring his A-game against Italy! 🇫🇷🇮🇹 Who else is hyped for the match? 🙌⚽️
