Although he no longer plays for PSG, winning the Champions League again holds deep emotional significance for Kimpembe. The defender spent a total of 20 years with the French capital's serial champions, joining their youth setup in 2005.
Just under ten years later, at 19, he earned a first-team place and soon established himself as a regular starter. Kimpembe also became a fixture in the French national team, including the 2018 World Cup-winning squad; he even featured in the final group match against Denmark (0–0).
Since late 2022, however, Kimpembe has increasingly found his fitness hampering his progress. Due to a torn Achilles tendon, he was sidelined for almost two years before making his comeback a few months before last year's Champions League triumph.
He subsequently moved to Qatar SC, where his contract expires at the end of June; he has made eleven competitive appearances for the Qatari club this season.
