One of the biggest names in world football, Kylian Mbappé says he will leave his club at the end of the season.

The French striker told Paris St-Germain fans that he will not play for the team beyond the end of his contract when it expires in June.

In a video message on his social media, he said the club had helped him "grow as a player" and "grow as a man as well".

The 25-year-old joined the club seven years ago and added he will keep his time in Paris in his memory for his "entire life".

91Èȱ¬ Sport say that he has agreed a deal to join Spanish giants Real Madrid in the summer.

Mbappé become PSG's record goal scorer in with 255 goals for the Ligue 1 side.

He won the Golden Boot at the 2022 World Cup for being the tournament's biggest goal scorer.

Here's five facts more about the French forward that you may not know.

In 1998, when Mbappé was just six months old, France won their first World Cup at the Stade de France stadium, just 11km from the young Kylian's family home, near Paris.

Kylian's idols were French midfielder Zinedine Zidane, and Cristiano Ronaldo who he had posters of on his bedroom wall.

But Mbappé's other big love is music, between the ages of six and 11 he attended a centre for the performing arts, where he learnt to sing, read music and play the flute.

Kylian left home at just 12 years old to become a footballer. He then moved to Monaco at 14 and made his professional debut at just 16 years old.

Although Mbappé is one of the fastest players in the world of football, how does he compare to world-record Olympic sprinter, Usain Bolt?

While playing for his club Paris Saint-Germain, Mbappé actually clocked a top speed of 23.6 mph (38 km per hour), 0.25mph faster than Usain's average speed during his 100m world record win in 2009.

However Mbappé can only achieve that top speed for a short amount of time.

So that means Usain Bolt - who maintained a high speed for the entire 100 metres - would still win in a race between the two.

In 2017, Mbappé joined PSG from Monaco on loan, before making the move permanent a year later for 180m euros (£166m) - the second most expensive transfer ever.

Mbappé went on to play alongside Neymar and Lionel Messi before the Argentina legend joined Miami FC.

In May 2022, Mbappé signed a new two-year deal to stay with PSG with an option to extend for a further year, but he has now decided to not remain at the club.

He recently refused to meet with representatives of Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal, who made a world record £259m offer for him.

In 2022 Mbappé became godfather to two baby pandas named Huanlili and Yuandudu born at Beauval Zoo in France.

Mbappé's role as godfather is mainly to create publicity and awareness for the species.

At the time he said: "It's a great pride, just to see them is an honour."

After winning the World Cup with France in 2018 four years ago, Mbappé announced that he had donated his entire £380,000 wage for the tournament to a children's charity.

Two years later the forward set up his own charity IBKM 'Inspired by Kylian Mbappé' supporting 98 children who come from all over Paris.

Mbappé was named alongside Ronaldo, Messi and Neymar as the most influential footballers on Instagram playing at the 2022 World Cup.

He has 113 million followers on the social media platform.

His folded arms and knee-slide goal celebration has become iconic and even featured on the Fifa 21 cover, making him the youngest footballer to appear on the sleeve of the game.
