French club Paris Saint Germain (PSG) is set to organize a farewell ceremony for star striker Kylian Mbappe on Sunday to honour his services for the club, reported by French newspaper L’Équipe.

Mbappe, who joined PSG as an 18-year-old in 2017, is set to leave the club and is likely to join Spanish club Real Madrid, who qualified for the UEFA Champions League final yesterday after edging past German club Bayern Munich.

Mbappe had hoped to sign off by leading PSG to Champions League glory for the first time in their history, and they were the favourites to see off Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes in the semi-final second leg.

But they failed to overturn a one-goal first-leg deficit, with Mats Hummels scoring the only goal on the night to give Dortmund a 2-0 aggregate victory. Mbappe was one of four PSG players to hit the woodwork in the second half, and coach Luis Enrique complained his side -– who had 31 attempts on goal had been “unlucky”. “I don’t really like to talk about bad luck,” Mbappe said after the match.  “When you are good, you don’t hit the post, you score. I tried to help my team as best as I could but I didn’t do enough.

“When I say we needed to be more clinical, I am the one who has to be scoring. But this is life, we need to pick ourselves up.”
