While Kylian Mbappé's future will be written far from the capital next season, as we revealed at the beginning of February, Luis Enrique does not despair of keeping him. In an interview given to Prime Video before the very heated Clasico against Olympique de Marseille this Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.), the former FC Barcelona coach hopes for an about-face from his international striker.
“Why would this be his last clasico? I still hope he changes his opinion. He hasn't said anything yet so he can change his mind, the Parisian coach began before sending him a message. Let's imagine that we win all four titles this season and that Kylian makes his choice at the last moment and (realizes) that his place is in Paris. Why not ? We will see. »

Mbappé still silent
Kylian Mbappé, at the end of his contract this year, has still not communicated his choice even if he made it known at a press conference during the Blues rally that everything would be “settled by the Euro”: “I I didn't announce anything, because I had nothing to announce. I always said that the day I had something to say, I would come and present myself as a man and I would speak. Until I do so, I have nothing to announce. »
For now, the Spaniard will be able to rely on the top scorer of the season in Ligue 1 (24 goals) against OM this weekend. Even if he still maintains the suspense over his tenure: “Everything is possible in life. What I am aware of is the importance of the clasico for the supporters, the club. What matters to me is that it goes well, that there is a spectacle. I have to have a very clear vision of this match but also a general vision of what is best. That's my job, knowing what's best for the team. Of course, people may disagree. »
