Luis Enrique announces that Mbappe did not inform him of his decision
Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique spoke to the media ahead of the Ligue 1 leader’s match against Strasbourg, corresponding to the 20th round of Ligue 1. The Asturian coach was asked about Kylian Mbappe’s future, to which he literally answered “no” and then joked, adding that “I can translate that into French.”.
The short answer, but it remains ambiguous as the player’s future is currently in question. This week a journalist from RMC SportDaniel Riolo assured that the French captain already assumed that he would leave in June, so he is not going to complain about the position in which Luis Enrique recently put him.. The silence that has reigned in the French press in recent weeks, in contrast to what happened in 2022 when news of Mbappe’s future appeared every day, is alarming.
The Asturian then spoke about the question asked of him by Kolo Muani’s lack of emotion during the celebration of the goal against Brest last Sunday. “I didn’t see how he celebrated goals, it’s personal. I’m very glad that he is part of the team. He has the ability to play as a number nine or on the wings. His attitude is perfect. I don’t care whether players celebrate goals or not.”.
Finally, the former Spanish coach has all but ruled out a last-minute reinforcement from PSG, who signed Beraldo and Lucas Moscardo respectively in the winter market. “I don’t have a watch with me, but the market ends in “about fifteen minutes.” Unless Luis Campsos springs a surprise at the last minute, I don’t think so, even if the club continues to work on all aspects of the market,” he concluded.
