Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe fuelled speculation surrounding his future on Sunday, saying that he wants "responsibilities, maybe at PSG, maybe elsewhere".
The 20-year-old backed up his excellent 2018 World Cup, where he scored four times as France won the trophy, by netting 38 times for PSG this season.
He was named as the Ligue 1 player of the season on Sunday, but did not deny that a potential move away from France could be in the offing.
"It (the award) is an important moment for me, a turning point in my career... The moment of having more responsibilities, maybe at PSG, maybe elsewhere," he told BeIN Sports.
Mbappe did not back down on his comments when asked about them in the mixed zone a few minutes later.
"For me, it was the moment to say it... When I say something, I think about it," he said, reiterating his desire to have more "responsibilities".
"If it's at PSG, it's good, if it's elsewhere, it will be elsewhere for a new challenge."
"To think that maybe I kept up with him until the last game, that's a source of pride too, but it's not over."
