The 23-year-old France international is yet to extend his contract at Paris Saint-Germain and will become a free agent this summer. Mbappe has been linked with Spanish giants Real Madrid in the past. As per El Chiringuito TV, he has communicated to his teammates at the French club that he is going to Los Blancos.
Speaking to AS.com during an event, Ronaldinho shared his views on the situation evolving at PSG and why he thinks Mbappe should stay in Paris.
When asked if the young superstar will continue playing for the French club, he said:
“Yes, I think he (Kylian Mbappe) will stay. But with football, many things can happen quickly. I want to see all my friends happy, wherever they are. But if the three of them stay, it would be fantastic for anyone who loves football. The three best players in the world together, that’s what all football lovers want to see.”
Ronaldinho also spoke about Paris Saint-Germain's UCL elimination in the Round of 16 at the hands of Real Madrid. After this, Messi and Neymar were booed by a section of fans in their next Ligue 1 game.

On this, Ronaldinho said:
''Football is like that! They are two great teams. Madrid has a great history in the Champions League. In these types of matches, anything can happen. I don't understand. If you whistle Messi, there is nothing left! If you whistle for the best in the world, who are you going to applaud? I do not get it…''
