Mbappe: ''I will be a Real Madrid player for the next 5 seasons at the MINIMUM''

Mbappe: ''I will be a Real Madrid player for the next 5 seasons at the MINIMUM''

Mbappé: “I’m happy. I’m very happy, you can see that smile on my face… and an happy player can perform way better”.

“It would be a shame if I said I was unhappy at PSG because I now have my new club. But there were people and things that made me unhappy.”

 I have always dreamed of being a Real Madrid player. Florentino Perez always trusted me.

 If you look at it from a technical point of view, this season is the lowest according to my standards, 

but if I had to think about all the things I went through, this season would be the best for me.

Kylian Mbappé: “For me, the EUROs is more complicated to win than the World Cup." 🤯

“I saw messages from my idols, Cristiano, Ramos, Casillas, my future teammates, everyone. They touched my heart. Thank you to them all.”

Kylian Mbappé: “Paris Saint-Germain told me frankly that I would not play the whole season, Luis Enrique and Luis Campos saved me.”

The Frenchman’s move from Paris Saint-Germain to Los Blancos was made official in the evening, just as he had told Emmanuel Macron earlier that same morning. The announcement came in the form of a short Communicado official and was then followed by an Instagram post in which he revealed his pride at having joined the reigning European champions.

Just hours later, Mbappé has now spoken to the media for the first time in the form of a press conference, ahead of France’s Euro 2024 warm-up game against Luxembourg on Wednesday. Before fielding the first question from the journalists that had gathered for the occasion, Les Bleus’ captain shared a message.

“I want to express myself before starting this press conference. It is an immense pleasure, a dream come true. I am extremely proud to arrive at a club that I have always dreamed about. I’m arriving with a lot of humility. There are lots of emotions but I have a responsibility as captain of the France national team. I won’t reply to questions other than those about the national team. I would prefer to protect us because we have a big summer coming up,” said Mbappé, echoing his words from the preceding evening.

A chapter is turning, however, he is reticent to indulge fully, at least not until after the Euros, for which France are one of the favourites.
