“We Don’t Talk to Him…” – Kylian Mbappe’s Teammate Reveals PSG Locker Room’s Response to News of His Inevitable Departure

Kylian Mbappe is not fretting over his future. Following the clash against Germany, the PSG star said, “My future is no longer a topic at the club. No one talks to me about it anymore.” However, the reality is PSG’s greatest-ever goalscorer is yet to pen a new contract, with his current one expiring in June. As per reports, Real Madrid is firmly in the driver’s seat. Hence, could the Parisian club really be that relaxed about the future of its most valuable asset? PSG’s star, Fabian Ruiz explains the situation inside the club.

Speaking on the Spanish soccer show El Chiringuito de Jugones, Ruiz offered a diplomatic answer regarding Kylian Mbappe’s future. He said (via Google Translate), “I don’t think there were any goodbyes. We don’t talk to him about his future. He’s a very important player for us.” Surprisingly, the Spanish midfielder also claimed to not know much regarding the Frenchman’s links with Real Madrid. Ruiz said, “If Mbappé would fit in well in a locker room like that of Real Madrid? I can’t answer you because we don’t know what his future will hold.”

A possible reason why Kylian Mbappe and Real Madrid are yet to make an official confirmation could be the upcoming Euro 2024. Having lost the 2022 FIFA World Cup at the last moment, the PSG winger would want to approach the tournament with a calm mind. Regardless of the Frenchman’s future, one thing is certain. His club’s manager, Luis Enrique is already preparing for life without the prolific attacker.

PSG has to get used to ‘not playing’ with Kylian Mbappe, Enrique cites the need for ‘maximum competitiveness’

With 38 goals in 37 games, Kylian Mbappe has once again been the main man for the Parisian side this season. Hence, losing a player of such quality would be a crushing blow to any side in the world, let alone PSG. But Luis Enrique said that the side will have to deal with the inevitable departure. He explained, “We have to get used to not playing with Kylian; sooner or later it will happen.” Moreover, he also sent a defiant message to the squad ahead of the next season.

The Spaniard said, “I want maximum competitiveness for next season. I want every starting player on this PSG team to think that this is a great opportunity. This is what I am looking for this season and for next season.” Also, PSG has already set sights on potential replacements for the Frenchman. Rafael Leao and Victor Osimhen are two names high on the list.

But, the operation will not come in cheap as the duo could cost up to $260 million in transfer fees! Are you surprised with how PSG is handling the Kylian Mbappe situation? Let us know below.
