Mbappe reveals how Wenger reacted after he told him he wasn't joining Arsenal

PSG forward Kylian Mbappe has revealed that former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was a gentleman after he rejected a move to the Gunners, insisting he wished him luck with his new club.

The 19-year-old met with the former manager of the north Londoners to discuss a possible transfer from AS Monaco before his eventual switch to PSG last year .

Mbappe opted to remain in Ligue 1 and managed to win a domestic treble during his first year with the Parisians, scoring 21 goals in all competitions.

The young attacker has been even more lethal in front of goal at the start of the 2018-19 campaign, hitting 12 league goals in just 10 matches as PSG have once again stormed to the top of the league.
