Paris Saint-Germain head coach Christophe Galtier says Kylian Mbappe signaled to everyone at PSG with his early return from duty at the 2022 World Cup.
How was everything?
Kylian Mbappe helped France get within touching distance of another world crown in Qatar, and became the first person since Geoff Hurst to score a hat-trick in the final as the player went above and beyond to inspire the French team in an epic clash with Argentina. Mbappe’s efforts were ultimately in vain as Argentine forward Lionel Messi and Co prevailed on penalties, but there were no sullen or licked wounds from the super player as he had already returned to training at Paris Saint-Germain.
What did Galtier say about Kylian Mbappe?
The Paris Saint-Germain head coach told PSG TV that he welcomes the talismanic presence back to the fold at the Parc des Princes and that he is very happy to see him. According to Christophe Galtier, Kylian Mbappe had a great World Championship.
Galtier believes that this return is also a strong message for everyone. A player who may have been disappointed not to lift the most beautiful of trophies, even if he was the top scorer in this World Cup with eight goals. Manager Paris Saint-Germain says that Kylian Mbappe wanted to get back in touch with the group very quickly and prepare for the deadline, which is coming up very quickly and they are very happy to see him.
A little about the topic
Morocco right-back Achraf Hakimi, along with Brazilian player Neymar and Marquinhos, have also returned to the ranks of Paris Saint-Germain, but Lionel Messi – who is lining up to renew his contract with the Ligue 1 champions – remains in Argentina for now as Albiceleste celebrates by claiming for their first World Cup crown since 1986.
The French striker has made a meteoric return to PSG training just days after France’s World Cup final defeat to Argentina.
Kylian returned to Paris Saint-Germain less than 72 hours after suffering a World Cup final heartache with France. Kylian Mbappe, who scored a hat-trick in a Qatari showcase against winners Argentina, set off in Paris with the rest of France’s squad for a memorable homecoming before reporting back for training with her club on Wednesday morning.

The France national team player will be looking to put Sunday’s defeat against Argentina behind him with a big push for the silverware in the second half of the season. Paris Saint-Germain top the Ligue 1 table and face Bayern Munich in their last 16 Champions League matches. Together with Argentinian player Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe aims to win the main club prize in Europe to make up for his grief at the World Cup.
Paris Saint-Germain remain unbeaten this season, having won 13 Ligue 1 games and drawn two. This run freed PSG by five points from the second Lens in the French top flight. Paris Saint-Germain, who have seen Kylian score 19 goals for them through 20 appearances this season, will return to competitive action on December 28 when the host plays in Strasbourg
