After saying he wanted to leave the club a season before his contract expired, the 23-year-old became the target of the supporters' anger.Instead, he was the only player beyond reproach in a season that saw PSG once again bow out early in the Champions League, squandering a 2-0 aggregate lead in just 15 minutes in the last 16 against Real Madrid.
He is the only player to have won over the Parc des Princes ultras, and he looks set to end the season as the first player to top the standings both for goals and assists. Neymar once again struggled with injuries and has only shown his talent sporadically, while Messi, who joined to much fanfare during the close season, has yet to fully adapt to a new league and a new team.
The attacking trio, hailed as the most formidable front three in Europe before the season kicked off, only really clicked late in the season.Discussions are ongoing in Doha, where owners Qatar Sport Investment are based, but sporting director Leonardo said he did not know whether Mbappe would sign a new deal with the club.
