Last season, the young talent Kylian Mbappe, who astonished everyone, revealed that he had the chance to move to London's "Arsenal". Nevertheless, after a much talked-about deal, he moved from "Monaco" to "Paris Saint-Germain", which didn't spare 180 million euros for the 18-year-old the following summer. The sniper had met with the "Gunners" manager, but ultimately decided to stay in France. "Yes, I met with Arsene Wenger, who is a great coach," Mbappe said. "Here in France, he has a great reputation, is highly respected, and knows how to develop young players." "It was a real choice for me. However, of course, "Paris Saint-Germain" was the main option. We weighed the advantages and disadvantages of all the clubs, but my family said that it had to be my decision and I had to accept it." "It was also supposed to be a long-term decision. So, everything depended on me and I decided to come here to improve." Mbappe also revealed that his career could have taken a different direction, as he had visited London's "Chelsea" club in his childhood. Nevertheless, last season he wore the "Monaco" jersey and scored 26 goals and made 14 assists in all competitions.
