Kylian Mbappe is pleased with his decision to join Paris Saint-Germain from Ligue 1 rivals Monaco last summer and told FourFourTwo he is targeting major success at Parc des Princes. “For me, it felt like the right moment and the right choice,” Mbappe told the magazine. “PSG are a huge club and they want to win every trophy.

Anthony Martial, Manchester United v Liverpool will always be a standout fixture, given it was the September 2015 meeting between the sides in which the French forward burst onto the English football scene.
