Champions League: Mbappe names club he wants to win trophy with

Paris Saint-Germain striker, Kylian Mbappé, has said helping the club lift their first Champions League title is a matter of pride for him.

The 25-year-old bagged a brace as PSG beat Barcelona 4-1 comeback to progress into the semi-finals with a 6-4 aggregate win on Tuesday.

Mbappé, who is set to leave PSG in the summer with Real Madrid as the biggest favourite to sign him, insisted his future is not on him.

“I have the dream of winning the Champions League for Paris,” Mbappé told reporters.

“I’m proud to be at PSG since the first day. It’s not because there are good times and bad times that my pride takes a hit. The pride of playing for this club, of representing the club of the capital of my country, it’s something special for me who grew up there.

“To experience an evening like this one as a Parisian, it’s great. We have one more step to go before we reach the final in Wembley, so we need to stay calm.”
