French giants Paris Saint-Germain reached the UEFA Champions League semifinals but once again fell short in 2023/24. That means Kylian Mbappe's final shot at winning the trophy with the Ligue 1 champions has now passed.
The forward announced via a social media video on May 10 that he would be leaving PSG on a free transfer at the end of the season. Nearly a month later, Real Madrid confirmed the news many had been waiting for: Mbappe had signed a contract to join the Spanish and European champions.
Borussia Dortmund defeated PSG 2-0 on aggregate to reach the final at Wembley Stadium and condemn Luis Enrique's side to further heartache in Europe's grandest competition. Dortmund were ultimately beaten by Real Madrid in the title match.
PSG got all the way to the final in 2019/20, where they were beaten 1-0 by Bayern Munich, and their previous most recent semifinal appearance came in 2020/21, when they lost 4-1 on aggregate to Manchester City.
With Mbappe now heading for pastures new, what does his success rate look like in the Champions League throughout his career?

Has Kylian Mbappe ever won the Champions League?
Although he has won 14 club trophies throughout his career to date, plus the 2018 FIFA World Cup with France, the Champions League remains elusive for Mbappe.
The 25-year-old got closest to winning the prestigious club competition back in 2019/20 when his PSG side were beaten 1-0 by Bayern Munich in the final.
He enjoyed a run to the semifinal stage a year later, where Manchester City defeated the Ligue 1 giants 4-1 on aggregate. Previously, he reached the semis with old side Monaco back in 2016/17 before they were knocked out by Italian giants Juventus, also 4-1 on aggregate.
Even though he hasn't won the Champions League, he has taken many individual awards in the competition.
His form in the tournament helped him make an appearance in the UEFA Team of the Year in 2018, whilst he's featured in the Champions League Team of the Season four times.
How many Champions League goals has Mbappe scored?
Arguably standing out as the best player of his generation, Mbappe has shone in the Champions League throughout his career.
First bursting onto the scene with Monaco in 2016/17, the France international struck six goals in nine competition appearances with all six coming throughout the knockout rounds against Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund and Juventus.
