Luis Enrique harassed over the Mbappé case

The questions concerning the Mbappé soap opera particularly irritate Luis Enrique. This one doesn’t hide it.

This Tuesday, at the start of the afternoon, Luis Enrique presented himself at a press conference, on the sidelines of the Champions Trophy, which will see Paris Saint-Germain face Toulouse on Wednesday evening (8:45 p.m.) at the Parc des Princes.

Unsurprisingly, the Spanish technician could not escape questions concerning the future of Kylian Mbappé. “How am I going to handle it?” As I have always done until now », he first responded to a first journalist in order to touch on this thorny subject. Relaunched by a colleague of the latter, the former coach of La Roja appeared tired. “This is not a subject that depends on me, I am not the person who should answer this question”, he pointed out dryly. In the past, the coach of the Rouge et Bleu had already shown his annoyance regarding the soap opera surrounding the native of Bondy.

Since January 1, 2024, Kylian Mbappé has been free to sign with the club of his choice. The soap opera concerning a possible contract extension with Paris Saint-Germain should therefore start again shortly. Last June, the captain of the France team decided not to activate the last optional year of his contract with the capital club covering the 2024-2025 season.
