Gone are the days when Paris Saint-Germain FC’s ambitions revolved around signing world-class players without a cohesive plan. Their new transfer policy focuses on young players and squad balance. The club has laid the foundations for shifting away from signing big names for sky-high wages. Moreover, Lionel Messi and Neymar bidding farewell to PSG have freed up funds to invest in surging footballers with exceptional skill sets. According to Neymar’s ex-teammate, PSG is now committed to building a team around Kylian Mbappe. He even criticized the French club for judging players too soon without giving them much time to prove their potential.

Furthermore, the Spaniard claimed that Mbappe is an enormous asset to PSG, and the club building a team around him is a sound plan. Let’s dive deeper to find out what exactly the former Manchester United midfielder has to say about PSG’s current plans.

Former PSG star criticizes the club but praises Kylian Mbappe

Former PSG star Ander Herrera revealed his thoughts about PSG’s new strategy while talking on Colinterview. He even went on to criticize the club for putting the players constantly in a do-or-die situation. Herrera said, “I think they are doing right, also with Luis Enrique. Time will say, because in PSG you either win or you are out. They don’t give you time, that’s the reality.”

Later, he emphasized how the club has a great squad at the moment. The Spanish midfielder went on to shower praises on Kylian Mbappe, who often elevates the team’s performance to a greater level. The 34-year-old added, “I like the way they have built the squad. Two players per position also and only one big, big, big star, that is Kylian. Everyone knows that he is the star and they have to play for him.” Herrera believes that PSG is safe under the guidance of Luis Enrique, who makes all the right decisions for the club.
