French star footballer Kylian Mbappe is almost certain to join La Liga club Real Madrid from next season. Despite knowing this, Paris Saint Germain (PSG) coach Luis Enrique is still not giving up hope. Enrique’s hope, Mbappe will change his mind and decide to stay at PSG.
Mbappe’s team PSG will take the field against Marseille in the Ligue 1 game on Sunday night. Enrique spoke about Mbappe’s departure from PSG in the pre-match press conference.
Enrique was asked by reporters that if Mbappe leaves the club, will he have an impact on PSG’s starting XI? In response to this question, Enrique spoke not excluding Mbappe, but holding him.
Enrique said, ‘I always hope that Killian will change his mind. He didn’t say anything for now. He can change his mind. Suppose, if we win four trophies this season and Kylian Mbappe decides at the last minute that he wants to stay in Paris. Why don’t we see?’
In response to the question that Mbappe will be kept in the starting eleven in today’s match, Enrique said, I wish everything goes well. We will see a great match between two good teams. Our aim is to win this match against our arch rivals.
He also said, “As the manager of my team and club, I have to watch this match very clearly.” I also have a general view of what is best for us. This is my job. I have to make a decision and what is best for the team, I will make that decision.
Mbappe’s contract with PSG will expire at the end of this season. After that, he will join Real, according to the sports website ESPN. However, nothing has been officially announced by Real or Mbappe.
