In an interview with Movistar after the match, the 23-year-old forward delivered another piece of heartbreaking news to the Los Blancos, stating that he has not decided on his future yet.

There have been rumours that former Monaco forward has agreed to a pre-contract to move to the Santiago Bernabeu in the summer when his contract with PSG expires.

However, Mbappe refuted those claims as well as insinuations that the Champions League Round-of-16 fixtures would serve as an audition for his move to the Spanish capital.

Mbappe reiterated: “This game to influence my future? No - I’ve not decided, I give my best and then we will see what happens next season."

Mbappe's running and skill were too much for the Madrid defence to handle with Dani Carvajal bringing down the French forward in the 61st minute for a penalty but Lionel Messi missed from the spot. 

The second leg of the fixture takes place at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday, March 9, 2022.
