For Mbappe, this contract extension confirms that PSG is the best place to develop.
“I want to announce that I have chosen to extend my contract at Paris Saint-Germain. Of course, I am thrilled with that,” said Mbappe.
“I’m sure I can continue to develop here, in a club that provides all the means to perform at the highest level. I’m also elared to continue to develop in France, the country where I was born and grew up.”
