Luis Enrique spoke about Kylian Mbappé on Thursday at a press conference. The PSG coach said what he planned for his player in the race for the Ballon d’Or.

If Kylian Mbappé did not manage to get past Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland to win the 2023 Ballon d’Or, he nonetheless finished in third place, synonymous with a better ranking for him, since he participated in the race for the individual trophy. A great competitor in front of the eternal, the French striker must necessarily have been a little disappointed not to have got his hands on the reward, but his youth still allows him to see it coming. And according to Luis Enrique, he should eventually achieve this goal.

And maybe not just once. In any case, this is what the Paris Saint-Germain coach indicated this Thursday at a press conference, on the eve of the reception of Montpellier (11th day of Ligue 1). “ Obviously, to win Ballons d’Or, in addition to your individual contribution, and Kylian has it at the maximum level, you have to win trophies, either with your national team or at club. Here, we try to win as many trophies as possible. It’s obvious that a player of Kylian’s level, when he also has success in the national team, I have no doubt about his level and I am certain that he will win many Ballons d’Or.

With which club?

A very optimistic prediction for the almost twenty-five-year-old player (he will be on December 20). It remains to be seen in which club Kylian Mbappé will play when he (perhaps) obtains this famous Ballon d’Or. For now, the scenario indicates that he will no longer be at Paris Saint-Germain since his contract ends next June. If he were to ultimately stay there, Luis Enrique would be delighted to be able to help him achieve one of his many personal goals.
