PSG: "Keeping Mbappé is essential", supports Pochettino

This Sunday, PSG receives Reims for the last match of the season at the Parc des Prince, for the penultimate day of the French Championship.

If Mauricio Pochettino hopes that his team will keep in contact with Lille, leader, he also took the opportunity to send a new positive message to Kylian Mbappé, whose future is still uncertain.

Is it easy to pretend that the last games of the season were games like any other when the stakes are high?

.

Even if we can say that all games are the same, at the end of the season, we can win or lose a title.

So the situation is different and the players are feeling it.

Are you going to appeal Neymar's suspension?

This is something the club is thinking about, for Presnel Kimpembe as for Neymar.

The club will make a decision.

Do you approach the match against Reims thinking of Monaco and the final of the Coupe de France?

We're only talking about the upcoming match.

We must not repeat the same mistakes as in Rennes while keeping control of the match.

How to motivate players when the title depends on another team?

Will you be following Lille's score live on Sunday night?

Players and staff, we are very motivated.

You don't need anything, not additional motivation.

We will be focused on our match, on what we have to do, which is to take the three points.

Does the psychology aspect play a fundamental role in the final sprint?

The important thing is to win.

To keep an option on the last day.

It's not a psychological battle in the title race.

It is not a psychological question but a sporting one.

You have to have points and as much as possible.

You spoke of a new project for next season after the draw in Rennes (1-1).

What is it about ?

I don't think this is the moment to detail this project.

We are focused on the two competitions that remain to be played.

When the time is right, we will communicate.

The clubs are always thinking of a solid project that can lead him to victory.

Where is the extension of Mbappé to PSG

who jumped in your arms in Montpellier in the semi-final of the Coupe de France?

My back hurts now and I have to be treated by the physiotherapist (smiles).

That is true !

PSG have an ambitious project and keeping Kylian is essential for everyone's future.
