"The time has come for Mbappe to leave, no matter what. PSG existed before Kylian Mbappe and will exist after him. Kylian spent six years in Paris and in those six seasons, five different clubs won the Champions League. Mbappe was not in any of them. This means that the tournament can be won without him.

With his behaviour over the past two years, Mbappe has shown that he is not yet capable of leading a team. He is a great player, but not a leader. It is difficult to build a team around him," L'Equipe quoted Leonardo as saying.
