Kylian Mbappe has two games to define his PSG 遺産／遺物... the French superstar carries their 支持する／優勝者s League hopes as he approaches the finish line in the 資本／首都

• e-mail

Kylian Mbappe 発表するd on Monday that he will take on Usain Bolt over 100m. Should Paris Saint-Germain fail to make it past Borussia Dortmund, they might 同様に race on the 滑走路 at Charles de Gaulle.

The absence of a 支持する／優勝者s League final will quicken Mbappe’s 出口 for Real Madrid. To the 残り／休憩（する） of the world, it will also 示す the end of his time at PSG. There is still a French Cup final against Lyon this month, but this is the match and the 競争 that 事柄s.

After seven years, it is not 不当な to say that two games ― Tuesday e vening's match at Parc des Princes and the final at Wembley on June 1 ― will 決定する his 遺産／遺物 in Paris. That is not to say he will be unfavourably remembered if he doesn’t 勝利，勝つ the 支持する／優勝者s League. The 大多数 love him here, in the 資本／首都 and beyond. にもかかわらず 存在 Paris-born, it is his 関係 with the club’s ultras that is more 複雑にするd.

But to most Mbappe is the Galactico who cared, who always sought to maximise what he gave on the pitch, even if that meant becoming embroiled in 力／強力にする struggles off it. The 力／強力にする, in truth, has always resided with him.

If there is a major event here in フラン, the country wants to know what two people think. Firstly, 大統領，／社長 Emmanuel Macron. Then, Mbappe. Macron, however, probably wants to know what Mbappe thinks first.

PSG's 衝突／不一致 with Dortmund an d a possible final could define Kylian Mbappe's time in Paris

French 大統領，／社長 Emmanuel Macron has 提携させるd himself to the French football superstar

The petit 大統領，／社長 has always 提携させるd himself with this 冒険的な 巨大（な）. He celebrated with him after victory in the 2018 World Cup final, and made straight for Mbappe ― and 投票（する）s ― when consoling him on the field に引き続いて 敗北・負かす four years later.

A 最近の 招待する from Macron to …に出席する a 明言する／公表する dinner with the 首長 of Qatar at the Elysee Palace を強調するd Mbappe’s allure and status. He is smart enough to 受託する the 招待, too. He turns up, plays the game and leaves with his 直面する on the 前線 page of every newspaper. But 非，不，無 of that 事柄s tonight. Here, he must turn up, play the game and leave with his smiling 直面する decorating the 支援する pages.

PSG’s success or さもなければ, you feel, will depend on the 25-year-old, much like it did in Dortmund last week. Because for all that Luis Enrique has (1)偽造する／(2)徐々に進むd a team that is suddenly 井戸／弁護士席 structured, hard-working and likeable, the piece de 抵抗 remains Mbappe. He started centrally at Signal Iduna Park but was, for too much of the 1-0 敗北・負かす, 存在するing on the periphery. A 長所 得点する／非難する／２０ of 3.9 out of 10 from readers of L’用意する 逮捕（する）d how 効果のない／無能な he was.

His ego would have been bruised on a night when he was upstaged by Jadon Sancho. But that usually means someone is 予定 a （警官の）巡回区域，受持ち区域ing, and Dortmund could be left 黒人／ボイコット and yellow in more ways than one if Mbappe comes out fighting. They know it, too.

‘We’ll need to 餓死する him of service,’ said Dortmund captain Mats Hummels, who pocketed Mbappe (below) in the first 脚. ‘If he gets a chance, he will 得点する／非難する／２０.’

PSG's ultras are ありそうもない to celebrate Mbappe, who has never been a favourite of the hardcore

Mbappe could yet be celebrated if he helps PSG become European 支持する／優勝者s next month

PSG’s ultras are planning a tifo 陳列する，発揮する before the game but they are ありそうもない to celebrate Mbappe, who has never been a favourite of the hardcore.

‘The 関係 between the player and the ultras has taken a winding trajectory, its seven-year 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 punctuated by echoes of 出発 or (契約) 拡張 almost every summer,’ L’用意する 公式文書，認めるd yesterday. ‘As if there has always been a 抑制 in venerating a player who it was （疑いを）晴らす from the moment he arrived was just passing through.’

Mbappe’s passage is almost done. The sceptics would say he has long since had the finishing line in sight.

But if he and PSG can cross it together as European 支持する／優勝者s, the ultras might just make a tifo of him yet.
