PSG: "We will decide soon", announces Leonardo about Mbappé

Leonardo is the guest of France Bleu Paris this Thursday morning.

First extracts were broadcast this Thursday morning, around the suspense in the league, the Champions League or contract extensions of Kylian Mbappé and Neymar.

He insists on the suspense in Ligue 1.

"No, I'm not worried," says the sports director first at the microphone of journalist Bruno Salomon and former club captain Eric Rabesandratana.

“It values ​​the last few years when we won Ligue 1, says Leonardo.

If you are not in good shape, it is a championship as difficult to win as other championships in Europe.

It becomes a very interesting championship.

I am not hiding behind the pandemic.

But since March 11 and our qualification against Dortmund until today, it's a marathon.

It's incredible.

We spent four months without playing an official match, it's unique, it was only in France that it happened like that.

Everyone gets hurt because of the preparation.

We have achieved incredible things against Manchester and Barcelona.

We have always been present.

"

“The ambition remains the same.

"

He insists on the suspense in Ligue 1:" It's fascinating.

We will arrive in April which decides many competitions.

If we pass the round of 16, we will find ourselves in a traffic of decisive matches.

Often, we arrive in April and the championship is already played.

There, it will be the opposite.

He recalls the ambition without advancing with certainty that Paris will still be champion of France.

“Paris is one of the favorites, that's normal.

If we look at the last day, Lyon, Lille and Monaco have a very important winning streak.

The ambition remains the same.

These are matches (against direct competitors) that happened at particular times.

Our adversaries are prepared.

Lille has had an important level for several years.

Monaco continues to win after a complicated start to the championship.

Lyon do not play the European Cup.

It's very interesting.

"

“Play the game (against Barcelona) without thinking about the past.

“

After the victory (4-1) to Barcelona in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League, he does not want to hear about a new hitch.

“I believe in God and in work,” explains the Brazilian sports director.

What happened in recent years (at PSG) has happened to others.

The Champions League is a crazy competition.

There are three weeks between the two games.

We have experience.

It's very complicated.

We must be careful.

You have to play the game without thinking about the past.

We have to manage the match like the first leg.
