Focused on his Champions League match next week against PSG since his victory against Las Palmas (1-0), Xavi finds players in training. His men still have a few days to be ready for the most important European match of Barça's last three years. To counter Kylian Mbappé's offensives, specific work is being tested. Lamine Yamal talks about the interest for the winger to defend against this type of player.
“Not just with Mbappé. I always try to have the winger on my side. This already happened with Kvaratskhelia. Yes (we look specifically at Kylian Mbappé's game), but he is a player who, whatever I watch, is going to do something different for me. That's why I think I have to help the winger and that's it.” he spoke full of confidence to Mundo Deportivo. If Kylian Mbappé's role will not be to defend, that of Lamine Yamal will be quite different with a defensive withdrawal required by Xavi on his side.
