I Am ‘Not Bitter’ About PSG’s Champions League Triumph – Mbappe Opens Up

Kylian Mbappé, the France captain said on Saturday that he holds no bitterness over Paris Saint-Germain winning the Champions League just a year after his move to Real Madrid.

“I didn’t leave too soon; my story with PSG was over. I am not bitter; I had reached the end of the road,” Mbappe said in a press conference ahead of Sunday’s Nations League third-place match against Germany in Stuttgart.

PSG crushed Inter Milan 5-0 to win the Champions League in Munich last Saturday, the first time the club has won the competition.

“I tried everything, and it was destiny that meant it had to happen without me,” said Mbappe.

“PSG winning the Champions League without me doesn’t affect me. I was happy. I think they deserved it.

“They’ve had so many years where they struggled. I’ve been there too; I’ve played in every Champions League stage in Paris except for the victory.

“They’re the best team in Europe.

“I don’t remember seeing a team win 5-0 in a major final.”
