Nowadays, it can be challenging to stay up to date with everything Kylian Mbappe.
Does he remain a member of PSG? Does he intend to join Real Madrid? Will the romance between the two titans of Europe and the French World Cup winner ever end?

The 25-year-old, who had earlier assured the club president he would tell him directly of his decision once it was determined, has told Nasser Al-Khelaifi he intends to leave Paris this summer.
All this barely a day after Mbappe led PSG to a 2-0 win in the first leg of their last-16 tie with Real Sociedad in the Champions League. The French giants have long struggled in Europe’s premier club competition despite their lucrative spending over the past 15 years, while Madrid are renowned as serial winners on the continent.
The closest Mbappe came to European glory with PSG was in 2020 when they were defeated finalists to winners Bayern Munich. They look unlikely to test Europe’s top sides this year, but the France captain would be revered forever in the nation’s capital if he led the club to a first ever UCL crown, having long been their all-time leading goalscorer.
