In recent days, there have been various rumors and reports that Kylian Mbappe wants to leave the club. This started because of criticism of the player from Luis Enrique. He told Mbappe to improve on his overall game despite scoring a hattrick in the win against Reims. The Spanish manager made the same criticism three times in the media after the match. After the criticism, Mbappe has now stepped in to defend both of the managers.
The 2018 World Cup winner in his statement said, “Deschamps gives me more freedom. Luis Enrique gives me more instructions.” But I know how to adapt and given the quality of the coaches, it is in my interest to listen to them.” Kylian Mbappe has done the right thing to listen to them. France is currently undefeated in all six matches of their Euro 2024 qualifiers. Meanwhile, Paris Saint Germain is also getting their domination back after a poor last season.
