No less than 250 guests will have the honor, this Monday, May 20, of participating in the farewell evening organized by Kylian Mbappé in Paris. The French striker, who will play his last match with PSG on Saturday in the Coupe de France final, has privatized the Italian restaurant Gigi, located on avenue Montaigne in the 8th arrondissement. It is in this chic setting, with a panoramic terrace overlooking the Eiffel Tower, that the captain of the French team brings together teammates, staff members and friends. Emmanuel Macron is also part of the guest list.
Ironically, the establishment was formerly called “The White House”, notes Le Parisien, the nickname given to Real Madrid, its (probable) future destination. Nothing has been made official, but there is no longer any doubt that Kylian Mbappé’s future is in Spain. The 25-year-old world champion announced his departure from PSG on May 10 after seven seasons at the club. Last Monday, he was named best player in Ligue 1 for the fifth time in a row during the UNFP Trophies award ceremony.
