Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has responded to what he perceives as repetitive inquiries regarding Kylian Mbappe’s playing time, labeling them as “boring.
Mbappe has been substituted in draws against Stade Rennais and Monaco, and not included in the starting XI against Stade Reims.
Luis Enrique was questioned over his decision to replace Mbappe with Goncalo Ramos shortly after his side broke the deadlock.
He said:
“It’s the same music, every single week.”
“It’s so boring. I am the manager. I make decisions every day, every week. I am going to the same until my last day in Paris.
“I always try to find the best solution for my team. Maybe I am wrong, but I think I am right.”

Real Madrid are the hot favourites to snap up the superstar forward but there has been no official announcement from either party about a potential transfer.
After he was an unused substitute in PSG’s 3-1 win over Lille in mid-February, Mbappe has only played the full 90 minutes five times in all competitions, and only once in the league.
Mbappe and Luis Enrique reportedly held clear-the-air talks early in March, and the forward has continued to play a key role in PSG’s UEFA Champions League campaign.
He scored three goals across both legs in their last-16 victory over Read Sociedad,
as he helped his side into the quarter-finals where they will play Barcelona.

“I still hope that Kylian Mbappe changes his mind.”
“He hasn’t said anything at the moment, he can change his opinion.
Let’s imagine that we win all four titles this season and that Kylian makes his decision at the last moment… that his place is in Paris. Why not? We’ll see.”
