In his last appearance at Parc des Princes as a Paris Saint-Germain player, Kylian Mbappe found the net, but it wasn’t enough to secure victory as PSG suffered a surprising 3-1 loss to Toulouse. Despite the defeat, PSG celebrated their Ligue 1 championship triumph on the night.
Mbappe’s departure from PSG was confirmed through a video on social media, ending his seven-year stint with the club. The rumor mill had long suggested Real Madrid as his likely destination, with Mbappe privately expressing his intention to move on since February.
Wearing the captain’s armband, Mbappe opened the scoring early on, adding to his remarkable tally of 44 goals in all competitions for the season. However, Toulouse fought back, with Thijs Dallinga and Yann Gboho turning the game in their favor.
The loss marked only PSG’s second defeat in Ligue 1 this season, ending a streak of 27 games without defeat since September. Despite the disappointment, Mbappe’s legacy at PSG is secured, having scored a record-breaking 256 goals for the club.
Coach Luis Enrique hailed Mbappe as a “club legend,” acknowledging his significant contribution to PSG’s success. While celebrations were primarily focused on the title triumph, fans paid tribute to Mbappe, displaying a massive banner depicting him at the stadium.
Although PSG’s Champions League dreams were dashed this season, Mbappe will aim to clinch the prestigious trophy with his next club. PSG, meanwhile, have the opportunity to complete a domestic clean sweep as they prepare for the French Cup final against Lyon.
In other league action, Monaco secured second place and Champions League qualification, while Lille and Brest battled for the remaining top-three spots. At the bottom, Clermont’s relegation was confirmed, while Lorient faced the prospect of joining them in Ligue 2 next season.
