The French international forward had long been linked with the Spanish giants, but then on Saturday it was announced that Mbappé was signing a three-year contract extension to remain in the French capital until 2025.
And the 23-year-old admitted that choosing to remain at PSG wasn’t something he took lightly.
“It was a tough decision,” he said at a press conference in Paris. “Football was my refuge.
He added: “I knew there was going to be a time to talk about this, and I wanted to take my time to make the right decision, to make my decision. I didn’t have any issues with the pressure because I’ve been living with that since I was 14.”
