'I don't care' - Kylian Mbappe fumes as PSG manager Luis Enrique brushes off substitution drama
The 25-year-old was notably perturbed at being taken off in the 64th minute, evident in his eye rolls and head shakes upon spotting his number on the substitution board.
Despite his discontent, manager Luis Enrique wasted no time addressing the matter in his post-match interview.
Enrique Defends Decision Amidst Mbappe's Frustration
Following PSG's 2-0 victory, where goals from Vitinha and Goncalo Ramos sealed the deal after Mbappe's substitution, Enrique was grilled on his choice to remove the French forward.
Annoyed by the line of questioning, the former Barcelona coach didn't mince words in his response to the press.
"It's the same music every single week, the same music… it's so boring," Enrique vented to Prime Video, as reported by the Sun.
"I am the manager, I make the decisions every day, every week. I am going to do the same until my last day in Paris.
“I always try to find the best solution for my team. Even if you don't (understand the decision), I don't care. I don't care at all."
Fans reaction
Fans erupted on social media platforms, with opinions split over Mbappe's reaction and Enrique's response.
One commentator quipped, "Enrique is jokes. he’s reminding him who actually makes the decisions."
While another remarked, "PSG doesn't win anything because they don't control the players! Mbappe rules PSG, I've never seen that in any team..."
Mbappe's future at PSG remains uncertain as he edges closer to the end of his contract, with Real Madrid emerging as the frontrunner in the race to secure his signature.
