This week, the Frenchman officially announced his decision to leave the Parc des Princes club at the end of the 23/24 season.

However, Le Parisien later said that the former Monaco man would not be given a farewell ceremony.

Ahead of kick-off at the Parc des Princes, PSG ultras honoured Mbappe with a huge tifo.

Reacting to the gesture, Mbappe clapped the fans with a huge smile across his face.

Howeverm there was a section of fans who booed Mbappe's name when it was read out by the stadium announcer.

During his emotional goodbye message, Mbappe added: “It's a lot of emotions, many years where I had the chance and the great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world, which allowed me to arrive here, to have my first experience in a club with a lot of pressure and to grow as a player of course by being alongside some of the best in history.

“It's a club that I will keep in my memory my entire life. I will tell everybody, my whole life, that I had the chance to play here.”
