Nasser Al-Khelaifi responds to Real Madrid’s statement about Mbappe
Nasser Al-Khelaïfi gave an interview to Gazzetta dello Sport in which he reviewed the current situation at PSG. And of course he has referred to the statement that Real Madrid issued last weekend in which he denied negotiations with Kylian Mbappé regarding a possible signing of the Frenchman in the next summer market.
“I didn’t see the statement, to be honest, we focus on ourselves, not on others ,” said the PSG president.
Regarding a possible renewal of Mbappé , he commented: “The good thing is that everyone at the club is focused on football. I think sometimes people become immune to his achievements. How many players have played in two World Cup finals and Have they scored a hat trick in one of them? As I said before, Kylian is the best player in the world and it is fantastic to see how he boosts PSG and also the French national team. Furthermore, he is a very positive influence for all the young players who we have at PSG, and it helps us build our future legacy.
PSG has changed a lot this summer. A new coach, 11 new players, a new training center… “I would call it evolution, not revolution. At our club we demand the most from ourselves, and that means constantly looking for ways to improve and grow. When new foundations are built, “Of course it takes time , determination, patience and perseverance. A project is built on a plan, not on the result of 1 or 2 games,” he says.
“More than anything, we have a renewed philosophy: based on the collective, not the individual. Based on the long term, not on overreaction. I really enjoy watching our team play. And I think so do our fans , who are a fantastic support. We have already seen moments of brilliance after only a few months with the new, very young squad and technical team, and we know we are on the right path,” continues Nasser Al-Khelaïfi.
Warren Zaire-Emery ‘s emergence into the team has been spectacular. “He is a very special player, I am very proud that he has gone through our Academy. What he is achieving is phenomenal, with so much maturity. He is very loyal to the club and is passionate about playing football,” says the president and continues: “He “PSG is lucky to have players of this caliber year after year. The best players in the world want to play in Paris. And the best young players in the world are also developing in Paris.”
