While Kylian Mbappé has still not extended his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, the future of the French superstar continues to fuel debate.
If his statistics remain impressive, Kylian Mbappé is having a fairly mixed first part of the season. Despite his brilliant performances, the Bondy prodigy struggles to be consistent in his performances, as illustrated by his performances at Newcastle (1-4) or Milan (1-2).
Jérôme Rothen, close to the Mbappé clan, believes that the captain of the France team is weighed down by the uncertainty surrounding his future. According to the former French international, Kylian Mbappé must break the silence to clarify his situation and relieve himself of a weight.
“His situation is problematic. Mbappé has locked himself in a bubble, and his communication is not good, launched Rothen on RMC. He doesn’t want to communicate the why and how. It’s disappointing, especially when we know how he can talk about football and his career. If all is well in terms of his stats, this is not the case in terms of his behavior. He must exude freshness with PSG and I’m talking about his club, because he is very comfortable with the Blues. »
“If he already knows what he’s going to do, let him tell us!” »
“In my opinion, there are a few too many questions, Rothen continued.. If he already knows what he’s going to do, let us know! If this is his last year at PSG, or not, let him say it. And if he has decided to stay, stop asking questions. If he communicates in the coming weeks, that would suit everyone. He is less good on the pitch, it happened to all the players. Come and explain things, it will be a burden less for him. »
“I don’t feel he is thriving on the pitch. There are gaps, either Luis Enrique asks him different things than usual and he has difficulty expressing himself. In Milan, he gave him even more freedom in this match. He created chances, but he missed them. This weight in relation to his future, I think it has too much impact on his performances. It would be nice if he communicated a little more! “, concluded Jérôme Rothen.
