“Tonight will not influence my future”

Kylian Mbappé appeared before the Movistar+ microphones, after PSG’s victory in the first leg of the round of 16 against Real Madrid. The French star was the best of his own and scored the decisive goal in stoppage time. He surprised Ricardo Sierra, when he answered their questions in perfect Spanish, although with some Argentine accent due to his teammates. What’s more, He acknowledged that what happened tonight has no significance in his future and that he has not yet made a decision.

Does today influence your future?: “No. I know I play for one of the best teams in the world. I’m going to give it my all for the rest of the season. I haven’t decided my future.”

Victory in the Parc des Princes: “We’re happy. We’ve had a great game, it’s been very important. We’ve got the rhythm of the game, we’re working together, but it’s just one game. We’re ready for the second leg”.

Was it a different game for him?: “I am always ready to play. It’s normal for people to talk about me. I am happy to be a PSG player. I’m going to give everything for qualifying.”

He does not trust Madrid: “The tie is a little better, but it’s not over. We know Madrid, they’re one of the best in the world. We’ll give everything to qualify.”

The warmth of his hobby: “It’s a dream that all the people chant my name like that. It was a very important goal.”

In RMC Sports: “Madrid never refuses to fight”

Named MVP: “I am happy. It was a very good game for the team, we were satisfied, we took the opportunity for the second leg. Ney gave me the ball and I have the advantage of getting to the area quickly, where the striker can choose. They were defending and I know what I want to do to get the ball between the goalkeeper’s legs.”

Respect for the rival: “A team like Real Madrid never refuses to fight. It didn’t work out in the first leg, but they will play differently. We will have to prepare in the league to be ready on March 9. I repeat my movements a lot in training, it’s a habit. By repeating them, I’m more lucid. It’s a daily effort.”

Her future: “I wanted to focus on football. A lot of things are said. Everyone knows a little about everything, everyone talks about nothing. The truth is that I was focused on helping the team. We will have to show it again on March 9. I am very focused and happy to be at PSG. I didn’t wait to play against Real Madrid one afternoon in February to know that I could play for the team.”
