France international defender Presnel Kimpembe has left Paris Saint-Germain to join Qatar Sports Club, the two teams announced on Sunday.

The 30-year-old centre-back has spent his whole career at PSG but was in the final year of his contract and had only made five appearances since suffering a ruptured Achilles tendon in February 2023.

"Presnel Kimpembe will forever remain a major player in the history of Paris Saint-Germain," PSG said in a long statement.

Kimpembe has won 28 caps for France, with the last coming in June 2022. He made one appearance in their triumphant 2018 World Cup campaign.
