Kylian Mbappe has put his uncertain future with Paris Saint-Germain to one side as he played games with disabled children as part of a charity day outside the Stade de France.
The French youngster hinted that he could move on from PSG this summer while accepting the Ligue 1 Player of the Year Award last week.
There are also reports of a bust up between Mbappe and team-mate Neymar but the former managed to turn his focus away from footballing matters for some charity work on Thursday.

It remains to be seen whether Mbappe will still be in the French capital next season after he cast doubt over his future at the Ligue 1 end of season awards bash.
He said: ‘This is a very important moment for me, I am arriving at maybe the first or second turning point in my career.
‘I have learned so much here, and I feel it’s maybe the time to have more responsibility.
‘Maybe at PSG, that would give me great pleasure, or maybe elsewhere for a new project.’
