This summer, PSG made a significant change in the team. The French giants overhauled their squad by making top-class additions. After the likes of Lionel Messi and Neymar left, Kylian Mbappe got the burden on his shoulders to lead the Parisians. While he continues to do his job and score goals, in the process, the Frenchman seems to have lost the backing of his teammates due to his selfishness.
Additionally, just hours ago, he helped his side clinch crucial three points with his hat trick. Yet, his heroics failed to impress his boss and teammates.

Kylian Mbappe is currently the star of Paris Saint-Germain. The Frenchman has now become the face of the club and has the responsibility to lead his team to glory. However, his attempts to help the Parisians seem to have backfired on him, as the World Cup winner has lost the backing of his teammates.
According to Le Equipe, the majority of the dressing room has turned against the 24-year-old. Certain PSG stars believe that he primarily plays for his own benefit. In fact, following the loss against AC Milan in the Champions League, internal discussions occurred concerning the Frenchman’s role, positioning, and decision-making. Be that as it may, this is quite a shocking revelation.
Ironically, on one hand, the Ligue 1 side is struggling to keep the lethal striker in the capital, given the player is bound to join Real Madrid. On the other hand, the World Cup winner seemingly does not have a good rapport anymore in the dressing room. Certainly, it is not good news for either PSG or Mbappe.

Additionally, players are not the only concern, as he is also getting a side-eye from his boss, Luis Enrique after he managed to score a perfect hat trick.

Why was Luis Enrique unhappy with Mbappe?
Kylian Mbappe delivered a remarkable performance against Reims last night, securing a hattrick with an early three-minute goal and two additional goals in the second half. Yet, that didn’t win over his manager, Luis Enrique. In the post-match interview, Enrique expressed some critical sentiments about Mbappe. While insisting he wasn’t happy with the performance, the Spanish coach refused to comment on his hat trick.

Instead, he claimed the youngster could have helped the team in a much better way. “We still need a better Kylian Mbappe, and I believe he can improve. He’s a world-class player, we want more. I’m going to talk to him about it first, it’s private,” Enrique concluded. Certainly, these words somehow align with Mbappe’s rumored selfishness. Nevertheless, what do you think about this?
