Kylian Mbappé and PSG have a huge game this week in the second leg of the Champions League semifinals at the Parc des Princes, but the team did not play in Ligue 1 this weekend. Instead, Mbappé and his brother Ethan held a Nike event at the Champs-Elysees in Paris. The popular avenue hosted Mbappé's event, which included hundreds of fans gathered to participate in activities such as running, futsal, and more. The PSG star, along with his brother, posed with young fans in Paris for the event just days away from the game against Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes.

While Mbappé and his fans were having a great time in Paris, the PSG star was asked about his future with PSG and what is to come with the Champions League. The striker was asked if he has changed his idea about going to the Olympics this summer in Paris. Mbappé said, "My position has not changed [about wanting to go to the Olympics]. I don't think much about it."
When talking about PSG, Mbappé gives his thoughts on what could be his last game with the French club in the Champions Legaue since he is rumored to go play for Real Madrid next season. Mbappé said, "The pressure on my shoulders for Tuesday’s match vs. Dortmund? It’s normal because there’s a place in the Champions League final up for grabs, which is not negligible. Even more so when you consider the club’s record in the competition. We are aware of the pressure, but the squad is extremely calm. We are confident and we are sure that we will come back from this (1-0 deficit) scoreline and that we will qualify for the final.”
The last time PSG played Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes
Borussia Dortmund is leading 1-0 against PSG on aggregate in the Champions League semi-final, and the French team would need to make a comeback to reach the final at Wembley Stadium. PSG and Dortmund played each other in the group stage earlier in the season in Group F. PSG drafted Dortmund 2-0 at the Parc des Princes last time in Paris, which is a scoreline they need to advance to the final.
