Mbappe was not made captain of PSG.

The situation changed during the summer transfer window, after Mbappe suddenly decided he didn't want to renew his contract with PSG, only wanting to play until the 2023-2024 season and then leave as a free agent. This change also altered Mbappe's standing with the Parisian club.

Mbappe was not made captain of PSG as he had hoped.

"PSG held two rounds of voting for the team captain. Defender Marquinhos still enjoys the trust of his teammates, while Mbappe seems to have lost favor with them. Mbappe, along with Verratti, Danilo Pereira, and Presnel Kimpembe, were the main candidates in the PSG captaincy vote, but all received far fewer votes than Marquinhos," reported L'Équipe (France).

"Now, people will have to wait and see what role coach Luis Enrique will give Mbappe at PSG. The Spanish coach has stated that he does not want to be involved in the appointment of the club's captain."

That's why there was a vote. Marquinhos deserves to be PSG captain, because the central defender has also been captain under coach Mauricio Pochettino and also coach Christophe Galtier. Therefore, he has a lot of experience and the ability to lead the Parisian team," L'Équipe assessed.

Mbappe has yet to decide his future at PSG.

"Mbappe's position could only change, with the possibility of returning to PSG's vice-captaincy, if he agrees to contract extension negotiations in the near future. PSG still hopes to keep Mbappe, giving him the option to leave in June 2024 if he signs an extension until June 2025. This possibility is currently very optimistic, as Mbappe's side has agreed to negotiations," L'Équipe added.
