Kylian Mbappé will reportedly leave Paris Saint-Germain this summer when his contract expires. The 25-year-old is expected to sign with Real Madrid as a free agent. Nonetheless, the way the public views his exit actually matters to him.
Since reports came out that he intends to leave his hometown club, the Frenchman has been in the news for not handling his substitution out of matches in a more mature manner. The latest came this past weekend when Mbappé uploaded a cryptic Instagram post.
If the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner is indeed leaving, L’Equipe reports that the public opinion on how he leaves matters to him. According to the French media outlet, Mbappé fears the way in which the general public will welcome his departure from PSG.
As a result, this is possibly one of the reasons for his current decline. It will be interesting to see if he can put the substitutions behind him as the Parisians can punch their ticket to the Coupe de France final on Wednesday.

Afterward, there’s the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal tie against Barcelona. The capital club has a chance to win the treble this season and that can be a perfect gift to Paris as he departs.
