French star Kylian Mbappe, a player for Paris Saint-Germain, decided that his future would be with the Parisian club, after winning the French League Player of the Year award for the 2022-2023 season. Mbappe achieved this impressive victory after a fierce competition with his colleague Lionel Messi for the title of best player, at a ceremony that took place on Sunday evening in Paris. With this win, Mbappe retains the award for the fourth consecutive season.

Mbappe topped the league’s top scorer list with 28 goals and 6 assists, one round before the end of the season. On the other hand, Messi scored 16 goals and provided 16 assists during the campaign that crowned his team Saint-Germain the title this season.

Portuguese player Nuno Mendes, left back Paris Saint-Germain, won the award for the best promising player in the French League, while Brice Samba, the player of Lens, won the award for best goalkeeper. Lens coach Frank Eise was crowned the best coach of the season after his achievement in leading the team to participate in the Champions League.

Mbappe expressed his happiness at winning this award for the fourth year in a row, saying: “I am very happy. I have always aspired to win and put my name in the history of the tournament. Despite my great ambition, I did not expect to win so quickly.”

Regarding his future with Paris Saint-Germain, Mbappe, who is the top scorer and runner-up in the last World Cup that was held in Qatar, confirmed, “I will stay here next season. I still have a one-year contract, so I want to respect it.”

Rumors are still haunting the French star

Kylian Mbappe’s statement does not prevent the Spanish press from continuing to publish information day and night about his future. Mbappe must sign a contract in advance, which would oblige him to reimburse Real Madrid for the same amount if he moved to another club.

It is noteworthy that the Spanish Real Madrid is close to settling the contract with England midfielder Judd Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund, according to the Spanish media, which reported on Wednesday that the deal will be concluded soon.

The 19-year-old is considered one of the most promising faces in the world of football today, which made Real Madrid ready to sign him for 100 million euros.
