Before PSG vs Real Madrid: Mbappé takes a jab at the Parisians

This Wednesday, Kylian Mbappé will face PSG again, but this time in the colors of Real Madrid. Ahead of the blockbuster Club World Cup semifinal, the French superstar is lighting up social media with his latest Instagram story.

The story shows Kylian Mbappé alone on the pitch at the Parc des Princes, wearing the PSG jersey. In the background, you can spot the advertising boards for the brand GOAT. GOAT also stands for "Greatest Of All Time"—a nod both to his legendary status and his history with Paris.

This striking image comes just hours before Mbappé’s much-anticipated reunion with PSG in the Club World Cup semifinals. The message may be subtle, but it’s unmistakable: the former PSG No. 7 is determined to leave his mark on this showdown.

All this comes after statements from Luis Enrique and, above all, PSG’s Champions League triumph without the French prodigy.
