After a long standstill that saw Real Madrid ditch Kylian Mbappe, PSG has finally reinstated the star back in their squad. While the negotiation between the two sides is far from over, the French side will now be looking to put their focus on the ongoing campaign. Although Kylian Mbappe has been restored back into the squad, the same cannot be said for one of his teammates.
Following the departures of Lionel Messi and Neymar Jr., PSG has put their focus on revamping their squad. The team under their new manager, Luis Enrique, has put the focus on youth with some notable names missing out on the team sheet. However, one name from the list comes off a big surprise with Enrique not willing to try the player out, with hopes that the player can be offloaded to Saudi Arabia before the transfer window closes.
