Kylian Mbappé on staying at PSG: “I heard the call of the homeland and of the capital city.”

In an interview this afternoon with Le Parisien, Kylian Mbappé notably denied that he had any agreement in place with Real Madrid before extending with Paris Saint-Germain.

The French international, who signed his new deal on Saturday after making his decision last week, explained that he understood the La Liga side’s fans’ disappointment, but that he was intent on staying in France and at the club he has been at for the last 5 years.
