Mbappe wins France's player of the year award
Wednesday, 15 May 2024
PARIS, May 14 (AFP): Kylian Mbappe was named France's player of the year on Monday at an awards ceremony in Paris, as he comes to the end of his seven-season stay with Paris Saint-Germain.
Mbappe, 25, picked up the prize for the best player in Ligue 1 at the UNFP (French players' union) Trophies gala for the fifth time in a row after a season in which he has scored 44 goals in all competitions for PSG.
The France captain last week confirmed he will leave PSG at the end of the campaign when his contract expires, with Real Madrid expected to be his next destination.
"It is a page that is turning, a chapter of my life that is going to close," Mbappe said.
"Ligue 1 will always have an important place in my life. It is the only league I have known in my career up to now.
