Kylian Mbappe has dispelled rumours of a disagreement with PSG manager Luis Enrique, asserting that he is currently managing other matters.
The French striker showcased his prowess by scoring two goals as Paris Saint-Germain triumphed over Real Sociedad 2-1 in the second leg of their round-of-16 Champions League encounter, securing their place in the quarterfinals.
After their progression, Mbappe refuted any speculation regarding tensions with manager Luis Enrique.
Speaking to Canal+ after the match, the 25-year-old said, “My response on the ground? No, I don’t have a particular message. I still want to play in the Champions League.
It’s an important competition. But I will never be a player who hides. Is everything settled with Luis Enrique? There is no problem with Luis Enrique, even if people think I do. I have many problems, but the coach is not one of them.”
The French captain is poised to depart PSG at the end of the current season as he prepares to join La Liga giants Real Madrid during the summer transfer window.
A verbal agreement has already been reached between the player and the club, and an official agreement is expected to be finalised soon.
In their next fixture, Les Parisiens will face Reims at Parc des Princes in Ligue 1 action on Sunday.
