‘We never know what can happen’ – Kylian Mbappé alludes to future AC Milan move

Kylian Mbappé’s (25) move to Real Madrid has not even been confirmed, however, the France captain has already alluded to a future move to Italy during an interview with Sky.

Mbappé ended months of speculation finally announcing his departure from Paris Saint-Germain, with whom he has spent seven years, earlier this month. In the video, he confirmed that he would not be extending his contract beyond the end of the season, meaning he will leave on a free transfer.

He did not confirm his move to Real Madrid in the video, nor did he confirm the transfer when speaking after his final match in a PSG shirt, against Olympique Lyonnais on Saturday. However, he did say that an announcement regarding his future would come in “just a few days”. It is thought that that announcement will come after Real Madrid’s participation in the UEFA Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.

However, whilst we continue to await confirmation of his move to the Bernabeu, Mbappé has spoken about another future move… to Italy. “We never know what’s going to happen. When I was a kid, I was an AC Milan fan. I have always said that if I were to come [to Italy] one day, I am going to play for AC Milan. We never know what can happen. I’m always watching the Italian league and all of AC Milan’s matches,” Mbappé told Sky, adding that his love of the Rossoneri has been adopted from watching the club’s matches with family friends when he was young.
