Kylian Mbappe is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) after the team's disappointing exit from the Champions League.

The French forward is believed to move to Real Madrid. Mbappe's potential move comes as Borussia Dortmund's impressive performance against PSG earned them a well-deserved spot in the final.

Mbappe's departure from PSG comes as no surprise, as he has been hinting at a move away from the club for some time. Despite his impressive individual performances, PSG have failed to win the Champions League during his time at the club.

The 24-year-old joined PSG in 2017. He scored over 150 goals and helped the team win numerous domestic and international titles. However, his failure to lead the team to Champions League glory led to criticism from fans and management alike.

Mbappe is the top choice for Real Madrid, with reports suggesting a deal could be announced in the coming weeks. The Spanish giants have a long history of signing top talent.

PSG will be sad to see Mbappe go. However, the club's failure to win the Champions League despite having some of the best players like Mbappe, Neymar, and Lionel Messi in the world has led to a need for change. With Mbappe's departure, PSG will be forced to rebuild and refocus their efforts on winning the one trophy that has eluded them.

The stage is set for a thrilling final of Champions League as Dortmund seek redemption against Real Madrid at Wembley on June 1.
