Coupe de France: Kylian Mbappe shines as PSG edge past Brest while Real Madrid rumors continue

by - February 07, 2024

Kylian Mbappe is not far from the headlines at present but it did not show on Wednesday night as Paris Saint-Germain edged out the 10 men of Stade Brestois 29 with a 3-1 win at Parc des Princes to advance to the Coupe de France quarterfinals. 

A Ligue 1 matchup less than two weeks ago which the France international did not score in, he opened the scoring in clinical fashion after 34 minutes to settle the home side's nerves after Eric Roy's impressive Pirates had threatened Gianluigi Donnarumma's goal.

Mbappe's finish was clinical as he continued his incredible scoring record of 50 goals from just 28 Coupe de France outings with 15 more assists on top of that but he made it look so easy at a time when the entire soccer world is waiting on his every move. 

Despite a recent wave of rumors suggesting that a free agent transfer to Real Madrid this summer is close, the 25-year-old is doing his best to keep his cards close to his chest and doing that the way he knows best -- by scoring more and more goals.

Mbappe is now on 30 goals for the season with four more assists and we are only just into February which keeps a 50-goal campaign within his sights.
