Paris Saint-Germain is champion of Ligue 1 in a celebration that still has a bitter taste for having been eliminated in the Champions League semifinal. Against Toulouse they will try to ensure that the loss against Borussia Dormund does not dampen the celebrations at the Parc des Princes for the title.

With that objective, the team has already announced that it will release a new jersey, which will be the one it will use next season. This was announced on social networks, with photos that highlight both the prominent presence of Marquinhos and the absence of Kylian Mbappé.

The Brazilian, in the institution since 2013 and with the record of being the player with the most games (441) in history, occupies a central place in the official posts. On the contrary, the forward who is assumed to be going to Real Madrid does not appear in any publication.

As for the new kit, it is “inspired by the urban art scene that defines Greater Paris,” Nike said. “The new design features the iconic central red stripe, bordered by fine white lines, reinterpreted with a fluid and dynamic brushstroke style. “This fresh twist on a classic pattern embodies the bold and innovative identity of Paris Saint-Germain, a club synonymous with the new generation,” the company added.

If Mbappé’s departure is confirmed, it will be the last kit he will wear at PSG. The public at the Parc des Princes will be able to say goodbye to the French attacker before leaving the club at the end of the season.
