Afther bagging a fifth Ligue 1 Player of the Year award, Kylian Mbappe believes Ousmane Dembele is next in line to shine at Paris Saint-Germain once he departs.
The French team captain decided to exit the Ligue 1 champions after spending seven years at the Parc des Princes, where he made his mark as the all-time top scorer with 256 goals.
Although rumored to move to Real Madrid, Mbappe has remained silent about his future plans upon leaving the club.
Regardless, the 25-year-old striker is confident that his fellow teammate, Dembele, who joined from Barcelona last summer, will be able to step up to fill his shoes. Dembele shares the title for the most assists in his debut season in France with eight.
Speaking at the award ceremony, Mbappe expressed gratitude to the entire PSG team, including the coach, medical staff, management, and shareholders, for their support throughout his time at the club.
Acknowledging the exciting challenges ahead, Mbappe emphasized the importance of making history in Ligue 1 before departing, a goal that he accomplished with humility.
