There is no doubt that a possible departure of Kylian Mbappé from PSG will be a heartbreak for many supporters, commensurate with what he has brought to the club and the mark he will leave in its history.
But while the time to say goodbye may be getting closer, with the PSG number 7's contract expiring in June and still not having been extended, some prefer to see the glass half full.
According to a survey carried out by Odoxa for Winamax and RTL, carried out among a sample of 1,005 people representative of the French population including 428 football fans, 80% of football aficionados consider that the departure of Kylian Mbappé would be a good something for his personal progress.
This figure remains high for PSG supporters in particular: 74%.
63% see PSG qualifying for the Champions League quarters
This is one of the main lessons of this survey, which also tells us that if the public is generally optimistic about PSG's chances of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and therefore of dismiss Real Sociedad in the round of 16, there is pessimism regarding the final victory.
Thus, if 63% of football fans predict that PSG will qualify for the quarter-finals and 51% see Paris winning against the Spaniards at the Parc des Princes this Wednesday, February 14, 39% of football fans think that PSG can win the Champions League.
This is the lowest level of optimism in the polls at this stage of the competition in four years.
More generally, if the majority of football fans consider the club's performances satisfactory (63%) since the start of the season, only 9% are very satisfied.
