When Kylian MBAPPE returns to the Paris Saint-Germain stadium on Friday to face Italy, he “doesn’t care” if he is jeered by his own French fans.
This summer, the striker ultimately left PSG for Real Madrid, reportedly due to a disagreement over over £46 million in unpaid pay. The 25-year-old will now return to the Parc des Princes for the first-ever Nations League match.The speedster is expected to face hostility after scoring a hat-trιck in the World Cup final against Argentina.However, he stated, “I don’t expect much from the reception tomorrow.” It doesn’t concern me. The goal must be victory.Mbappe scored twice as Real Madrid defeated Real Betis 2-0 on Sunday, regaining his scoring form.This moved Carlo Ancelotti’s club up to second place in La Liga, four points behind Barcelona, the top team.Mbappe continued, “I feel good, both mentally and physically.”“I’m content with who I am and what I do, and as the matches progress, I know it will only get better.”Nevertheless, his exuberant reaction upon signing a five-year contract with Real three months prior had increased dissatisfaction among PSG supporters.”A dream come true,” he remarked at the time. I’m overjoyed and honoured to have joined my dream club.”Nobody can understand how excited I am…”Between 2018 and 2024, he scored 256 goals in 308 games for PSG before accepting a £51 million salary cut to play for the Spanish powerhouses.He has scored 48 goals in 84 games for Les Bleus, and he is now turning his focus back to them.Both France and Italy will perceive their performance at Euro 2024 as lacking.In Germany, the French managed to advance to the semifinals.But in their opening encounter, Mbappe broke his nose.After that, he competed while wearing a mask that obscured his eyesight until the last four, when he lost 2-1 to Spain, the eventual tournament victors.Mbappe affirmed that his ιnjury had fully healed.”I had examinations in Madrid, and they told me there was no need for surgery,” he stated.”I have no trouble breathing or falling asleep.”Regardless of the response, he now hopes to give his reputation in the French capital a kiss of life.
