It’s now official: Presnel Kimpembe, a Paris Saint-Germain academy player and defender since he was eight, will be leaving the capital club to join Qatar Sports Club at the age of 30. A beautiful story that has come to an end for the most iconic Parisian Titi, who has won no fewer than 27 trophies in the Rouge et Bleu colors. He will get a Parc des Princes farewell, according to journalist Benjamin Quarez.
“PSG does plan to pay tribute to Presnel Kimpembe at the Parc des Princes, and will determine a suitable date for everyone in the near future.”
A beautiful page has turned for both the player and the capital club. Presnel Kimpembe represents success and hope for all the young players at the youth academy. With over 240 appearances under his belt, the Parisian defender has established himself as an iconic player for the club. He was also part of the team that lifted the Champions League, a unique moment for him, who was moved to tears.
Let’s hope that a fitting tribute will be paid to the Parisian kid, who can leave with his head held high. Despite injuries that kept him off the pitch and ruined his last three years, we will only remember the best of the 2018 world champion, who has always been loyal to his club and his supporters. We now await the date of this beautiful farewell.
