Kylian Mbappé gave a long interview to the official PSG media. The opportunity for the player to discuss his agreement with Lionel Messi.
PSG has achieved a huge blow on the market by getting their hands on Lionel Messi, last August. Arrived in Paris, the Argentina international reunited with former teammates like Neymar, but also young talents like Kylian Mbappé. An association that makes many Parisian supporters dream. But since the start of the season, the latter have remained hungry because of the disappointing performances of the Argentine star. Asked about his agreement with Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé returned to his adaptation. For him, the Pulga needs time to find some automatisms with his teammates, but also to get used to a new tactical pattern. .
“There is a difference between seeing the player on TV and in real life”
“Adaptation is faster when the human bond is strong. It helps you, you have fewer complexes, fewer fears. The new player arrives with certainties, patterns he has worked on. Even a player like Messi, he played for Barcelona and for 15 years he did the same. It worked there, but when he gets here, it's different (…) We create that in training, through passing circuits. It doesn't have to be every tactical job, but you make a connection, you know when the guy is there he can do that … You get to know the player. There is a difference between seeing the player on TV and in real life, you learn what he likes to do and what not. Adapting is also knowing what your teammates like, “said Kylian Mbappé in an interview with the official PSG media.
