French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[rendravolt]

It looks like Nice will continue their winning trend and we know that previously they managed to beat Lens with a score of 1-3. This was an important victory for Nice after they had not won at all in the last 5 matches in Ligue One. Nice must remain confident and must not give up quickly before this season ends.

Nice still has hopes of returning to the top four, especially since they have the same 43 points as Lille, so a win this week will be very important to get back on track in the Champions League next season. Nice's next opponent is Nantes and this is actually a fairly easy match for Nice to win. The support from the roaring fans in the match will add to their motivation in securing consecutive wins and of course I hope they can show the same game this time against Lens.

PSG will still own League 1 with or without Mbappe because this League does not make other clubs feel superior at all. PSG is also the richest club, the depth of the squad is capable and when compared with other clubs it is just entertainment. All eyes are on one team, there are no obstacles for PSG in League 1. However don't be surprised why PSG is not satisfied, because being in League 1 is not enough, and the target is UCL. It's a shame that the UCL is not the same, the competition is tight, healthy and PSG hasn't been able to achieve anything in the Champions League even though it was full of star players.

UCL competition and League 1 competition are not the same. UCL championship is PSG's biggest dream. To win that cup, they spent a lot of money to create a triple offensive line with Messi, Neymar and Mbappe. Only Mbappe remained today, but they still managed to qualify. They will play important matches for the UCL and I think advancing to the next round is more important for them than League 1 matches.

PSG spend huge funds for the Champions League is now past things are taking good changes, and they are working on building their team as best unit which is possible, but currently we are having Mbappé dilemma still on which is going to be ended in this summer and things will be more clear about this club's future.

PSG management is having dream which can came true, but this is never been easy because usually we can't buy trophies with money this all needed good work as well, but sadly they never do this which is their fault first time we have quality coach which can bring better results but this all needed time and if we have this for Luis Enrique then surely things can go their way, and we will have this team as one of the best in UEFA region.

Maintaining the dominance of the Ligue 1 title is an achievement to be proud of for PSG, even though for some people it may feel ordinary. This competition costs a lot of money and if you don't achieve success at the end of the season, of course you will lose financially. The league is basically more than something that is taken for granted, but of course the Champions League title is something bigger because it is an elite achievement between European clubs.

PSG fights every season to win the Champions League title, but their journey has yet to produce results. Maybe at some point PSG will win the title, but this season they are still not one of the favorites expected to win it. PSG must beat Barcelona in the quarter-finals, if they are able to then they are one step closer to the final.

If there is an interesting competition in it, it will still be very proud but when it manages to maintain with the advantage of resources that cannot be pursued by other clubs, even though it can still be proud of it, it will only be a normal impression because we know that something like this is a certainty that will happen considering that Ligue 1 has been considered the same peasant league as the Bundesliga in the last decade so that continuing to maintain dominance will be a natural thing for PSG.

But even so, I don't think it's a problem because it's also an achievement, it's just that PSG will still be seen as a club that can dominate in Ligue 1 but won't be able to do much in bigger competitions because they are too comfortable with the competition that always happens in Ligue 1 so they forget about tighter competition in bigger competitions and if PSG wants to be seen as more than that then PSG should start trying to make a new breakthrough where the overhaul is not only based on players but they have to find a more qualified coach and now they have started trying that with Enrique who is expected to be able to provide more achievements for PSG.

The teams and the football in the Champions League are very different from the teams and the football in the domestic league. PSG are a very good team in their league but in the Champions League they don't have the success they want.

After Mbappe's departure, I have some doubts whether they will have the same success in the league. As a team they are still stronger than other teams but Mbappe's absence will affect the team. I will specifically check whether the difference in the team after Mbappe's departure will be positive or negative.

I would guess that PSG may go for a manager change as well. I know that is not talked about a lot right now and maybe that won't happen but I think that they need a bigger name. I have always said the same thing and I will keep saying the same thing until I die, what PSG needs is Zidane. They will win the league and the cup anyway, they already win the league all the time and if they cared a bit more then they would win the cup too, that is just expected at this point.

However, if they get Zidane then they may win the UCL as well, he can build a team that would be better than the current one, even without Mbappe. Dude knows his own style and he knows attacking football, if nothing else it's guaranteed that they will have fun games to watch.

But that would be the worst timing ever if they now sign Zidane when Mbappe is about to leave the club. By the way I doubt that if Mbappe leaves the club, Zidane would not want to become the coach there. They should have tried like never before when there was still Neymar, Messi and Mbappe. But I think at the time Zidane was still a coach (or again) at Real Madrid? I am not sure about the timeline back then, but I think that was the situation. Now when Mbappe leaves PSG is not the same team anymore.

[LUCKMCFLY]

This has always been my concern for PSG they don't seem to  look like such a team thst is willing to be patient enough to want to build a team for the scratch and probably get to the point they become so formidable they will be able to be very productive even outside the Ligue 1 but they rather choose to keep focusing on starts with the mind that that's the way to helping them been able to achieve the kind of results they want to get.

If they are willing to build a team using young stars and talents such as the likes of coman and nkunku who were all gotten from their academy, they will be able to get a team thst will give them the kind of results they Desire even if it's going to take sometimes, but in the end it will be worth the wait and it will be even cost effective for them, just like Leverkusen now who's doing so well already and they are getting these results with their own players they did nurtured and not buying stars alone, it's even much better a team is able to build a star and get him to give the team the kind of performance they desire to get and later sell him off at a huge price which will now be another source of income to the team.

The Ligue 1 has always been the only place where PSGs dominance has been felt the most, they can possibly become a better team outside this small league where it seems their prowess is the most if only they are willing to probably risk a whole season to fixing the team and getting the team to produce the desired results and subsequent they would have a reliable team they can actually depend on the getting the kind of results they wanted all along.

The shortcuts made by PSG certainly make them a strong team in a very short time, and certainly it is not difficult for them to continue to be able to get many star players with the power of money they currently have, but of course PSG must be prepared for risks that are also detrimental to their finances if if the star players they buy now are not able to meet the expectations charged in achieving the championship target,  For now, what PSG is doing I don't think is entirely wrong, because will be difficult for a team to develop only by relying on the talents of academy players, yes maybe at least PSG must also be brave to orbit their young players into the current main squad in order to at least reduce their expenses.

Leverkusen in the Bundesliga are currently able to surprise many people with their achievements, but I think using Leverkusen as an example to compare PSG is certainly not realistic guys, because we all know how long it took Leverkusen to make history like now, and I think PSG will not want to wait that long to be able to make their team strong not only in Ligue 1 but of course the big teams of the Europa League so far become their benchmark for development.

I understand PSG's mentality. The aim is big names, huge wins. However, relying on a few superstars is risky. Huge risk. Spends a fortune, and no trophies? Disaster. Absolute disaster. Mbappe, a terrific player, shows that Champions League pressure can break anyone.

Believe me, this play is smarter: Create your own talent. Slow, but builds a stronger foundation. You avoid outrageous transfer fees and inflated salaries and get players who compete for the shirt, not just the salary. Mixing one or two major stars with local talent? The mixture is potent. PSG needs competitiveness and sustainability to win. Much smarter than their current plan.

PSG's mistake was always with their coach, it is not permissible that when they had 3 great stars and they did not win the UCL, Ligue 1 yes, that was obvious, but they had to demonstrate the level was in the UCL, so the mistake of the Sheikh as such was to allow himself to be talked over, prioemsesas and everything on the part of the coach, a sheikh who had everything and did not know what he had was lacking much more decision, because he did not know how to take advantage of the leadership of a team, I would have done everything possible to I tried to get Zidane, or one of the best at that time , but he wasn't able to do it, so that's like investing in something that you don't follow up on again, the sheikh really failed, now with Mbappé it only meant a lot, but It's not enough, sometimes the sheikh was very complacent with that player, and a player cannot be trusted by the club, those mistakes were the ones that never made PSG win, now they have a chance in the UCL that we are experiencing, let's see if things change.

The mistake in PSG is about not having a balanced team, you haven't learned this yet. Now according to some news, it seems there is another ard fact in PSG about their superstar players Mbappe. We know Mbappe is a great player and he is effective in any team he plays for them, even that's true when we say if Mbappe leaves PSG they will have problems because so far he has been the key player for PSG.
But this is not a good reason to say this player should get this huge amount of money in PSG and we should accept he is just a human and should take a salary like the other players, After the contract they signed in 2022, Mbappe's current income n PSG 6 million euros per month, Which means 72 million euros per month and 36 million euros after the tax he should pay. While the next player on the list is Harry Kane who gets just 2.1 million euros which is much lower than Mbappe.
Maybe this can make some other players in PSG think they are not valuable to the team.




https://en.as.com/soccer/what-is-kylian-mbappes-salary-at-psg-how-does-it-compare-to-real-madrids-highest-earner-n/

Yes, you are right, but the PSG players are aware of that, they are the first to know that Mbappé puts that ball of money in his pocket, they still accept it because they know that they have that player who at any moment can solve a game and goodbye to problems, that is something that the Sheikh also knows.

For now things are very different, when we see that things are going well at PSG thanks to Mbappé's performance, the sheikh doesn't care at all about his other players, he knows that with more money in a 2x3 you can get another team, so Mbappé is very valuable to him because in that club they have been very accommodating with him, and that is why the player has given himself all that luxury of being in the team as if nothing had happened and having those millions, of course, I like Luis Enrique's performance It only takes a few minutes to play.

Luís Campos could follow Kylian Mbappé in exiting PSG at the end of the season

According to L’Équipe, Luís Campos could be set to follow in the footsteps of Kylian Mbappé (25) and leave his position as a football advisor at the Parc des Princes and leave PSG at the end of the season.

When Campos arrived at PSG, it was made no secret that his arrival was aided by desires to keep Kylian Mbappé at the club until 2025. The France captain subsequently extended with Les Parisiens and the former Lille sporting director was appointed as a football advisor by QSI.

Luis Campos has now been at Paris Saint-Germain for two seasons and with the man instrumental in his arrival at the Parc des Princes set to depart for pastures new at the end of the season, Campos may be set to follow. Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is already looking ahead to next season and the position of sporting director has become a point of uncertainty in the planning for the 2024/25 season and life without Mbappé.

Now when Mbappe leaves PSG is not the same team anymore.

I don't doubt how Zidane can lead this team to success, to win many more leagues and at least 1 UCL for them, but I think that PSG are very satisfied with Luis Enrique , although for me he is a very good technician, Well, I must repeat that he has done good things, he has implemented respect in the team, if they bring Zidane, I think one of the conditions would be that he leaves Mbappé whatever, and apart from the players he says, because when he doesn't like a player It makes his life impossible until he does, and if not, then you have to ask James Rodriguez, who is a great player because Zidane in Madrid didn't like to score, and every time he came on, James Rodriguez scored a goal, that was something very shady for Zidane.

[Weawant]

Paris SG squad is more than enough for League 1. We also saw that Mbappe was rested in some matches because League 1 does not put much pressure on them. Naturally, they will focus entirely on the UCL rather than the league. Mbappe is a great player and has made great contributions to Paris. I am sure that he will continue to contribute to UCL. I think he will go to Real Madrid and do wonders. Mbappe is an important signature player with his contributions no matter which team he goes to.

The Ligue 1 for PSG is more like a stress free league for them where they get to play as they like and probably chooses when to loose a game and when to win one because so far by their performance it's looking like such as they are usually under little to no pressure playing the Ligue 1 as compared to how it usually looks like playing the champions league, even their performance the difference is usually obvious.

The effort they put I to the champions league sometimes looks much more better than that which they put in the Ligue 1 because it feels like they have got some level of assurance with the Ligue 1 and their dominance in the Ligue 1 is always wey pronounced, they almost had the league title for ten years straight except that they got interrupted at a point but they have had it for nine years with little to no interruptions from other teams. It very possible they can be able to achieve similar results even in the absence of mbappe because the league is actually looking mediocre with the way teams from the league perform outside the Ligue 1.

Real Madrid will be having mabappe bringing his outstanding performance to them and complementing their striking force which has seemed to be lacking i in a very long time before his arrival, I believe it's going to give PSG a set back for awhile especially when they will be performing outside the Ligue 1 but within the Ligue 1 they may suffer the set back for only a few while after which they will most definitely get back on their feet.

The teams and the football in the Champions League are very different from the teams and the football in the domestic league. PSG are a very good team in their league but in the Champions League they don't have the success they want.

After Mbappe's departure, I have some doubts whether they will have the same success in the league. As a team they are still stronger than other teams but Mbappe's absence will affect the team. I will specifically check whether the difference in the team after Mbappe's departure will be positive or negative.

PSG may dominate in their respective domestic leagues, but they find Champions League is a tough competition for them to strive. The departure of Kylian Mbappe undoubtedly leaves a significant void within the team. His impact on the field are undeniable, and his absence will inevitably affect PSG's dynamics and performance. PSG will need to prove their ability to maintain their success in both domestic and European competitions without Mbappe. They may still boast a strong roster in their league, even though they failed twice to Monaco and Lille, but the question arises as to whether they can replicate their achievements in the Champions League without Mbappe.

They are lucky for now to have Enrique as their manager, because he can be a valuable asset to build a strong team without Mbappe. The aftermath of Mbappe's departure presents PSG with a unique challenge and an opportunity to reassess their strategies and team dynamics. Whether the difference in the team post-Mbappe will be positive or negative remains to be seen. This will be a topic that will undoubtedly be closely monitored by football enthusiasts and analysts.

[TelolettOm]

The financial situation of PSG is what makes them different from other clubs of Ligue 1. The difference is honestly too much, even more than Bundesliga. Bayern has dominated the Bundesliga for a long period of time, but the competition gap has not been this much. I don't think Mbappe's leave would stop them from winning the league, but it would definitely be tougher to win it.

Indeed, they have no problem with their financial situation. They also have well-managed management. And they also still have many chances to get more talented players again, although it may not be as super star as Mbappe right now.

In the French league and other local leagues, PSG will not experience significant changes, especially in first place in the French League. Even without Mbappe, PSG, I'm sure, will still be the title holders. Because so far, there is no other club that can compete with PSG with high consistency and solidity.

However, it might be a little different when they leave the league in France. Like at UCL of course. Without Mbappe, it might be a little difficult for PSG to win or at least get to the UCL final. Moreover, if they don't or haven't found a suitable player to replace Mbappe, this will be quite difficult. Unless they can find a replacement for Mbappe whose performance is at least not too far from him, this will probably be quite difficult. However, they shouldn't only focus on 1 player because PSG also has to strengthen their midfield and rear to become a club that is truly strong from all sides.

But that would be the worst timing ever if they now sign Zidane when Mbappe is about to leave the club. By the way I doubt that if Mbappe leaves the club, Zidane would not want to become the coach there. They should have tried like never before when there was still Neymar, Messi and Mbappe. But I think at the time Zidane was still a coach (or again) at Real Madrid? I am not sure about the timeline back then, but I think that was the situation. Now when Mbappe leaves PSG is not the same team anymore.

I think this is not a bad thing, we all know what PSG's standards are if the coach is unable to provide trophies other than league 1. PSG will replace him with a new coach, PSG has the authority to continue changing coaches so that they can achieve success not only in league 1 but also in the Champions League, but it depends on Luis Enrique whether he is able to bring PSG to a better level in the Champions League or at least can reach the final round even though he has to be runner up then he will be retained but if not, maybe he will suffer the same fate as the coach previous trainer. Moreover, PSG does not have strong performance like Manchester City and Real Madrid to compete in this big competition, so it is not wrong if they are in doubt about winning the Champions League title.

Zidane is a great coach even though PSG was relatively late in recruiting this good coach because Mbappe was about to leave PSG, but PSG didn't appoint Zidane because Zidane decided to take a break after becoming Real Madrid coach so PSG couldn't offer him, but now it looks like Zidane has wants to return to the training chair and wants to take on a coaching role again but we also don't know which club he will manage. PSG has sufficient resources. If Zidane trains PSG then Zidane can buy the players he needs and he can create his strategy according to the capacity of his players.

I don't think Mbappe's leave would stop them from winning the league, but it would definitely be tougher to win it.

However, PSG has already said that they would sign 3 new promising players. If Enrique does his thing and creates team cohesion with his new team, I don't think there would be a problem for winning the league. But winning the league has become so common for them that it does not feel like an achievement anymore. They have struggled to win the Champions League even with their prime team so I think the focus should always be on that for a team like PSG.

Yes, in the future PSG will bring in new players after Mbappe and perhaps the aim of bringing in these new players is not only to replace Mbappe's position but to try to arrange stronger players to create a more consistent performance and build a high mentality to face matches in the Champions League.
As long as PSG can keep Enrique in the next few seasons, PSG will definitely have a chance of at least reaching the final round in the Champions League.

Mbappe departure will really leave a difficult situation for PSG, so it is only natural that now they have started looking for and observing all the players to be able to find replacement for Mbappe who can really help and enable PSG to have strong performance without Mbappe.
Do you remember that Enrique mentioned several times that all PSG players must be able to learn and start getting used to playing without Mbappe, Enrique said that they all must be able to play well without Mbappe.
But in reality PSG is not strong team without Mbappe and Enrique is too confident if he wants all PSG players to play well without Mbappe, PSG have played several times without Mbappe and they looked bad.
Enrique really has to bring in players who are equal and have very good playing qualities if they want to be able to play better and stay close to winning the title in every competition.
After all, Enrique is great coach and he should know what to do and what he must have so that PSG can continue to have high quality performance.

As I said before, PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi has a target of winning the Champions League. PSG is very strong in Ligue 1, they have much greater financial strength than other teams, so I think PSG will continue to dominate Ligue 1 for the next few seasons. I think people have also placed bets on PSG being the Ligue 1 champions next season. I prefer to see their performance in the Champions League. They will try to bring in several players in this transfer market and try to compete in the Champions League next season. This season they performed quite well in the Champions League and managed to qualify for the quarter-finals.

the problem is not only about that, but the challenges in the UCL are not as easy as the PSG president imagines and the UCL is not as easy as getting the League 1 title.
no matter how big the team is or how rich the team is, it will only be in vain if it doesn't have high levels of consistency and doesn't have strong mental readiness to win the UCL title.
let's remember last season, PSG had Messi, Neymar, Mbappe and these three players were players who really had very high quality skills in terms of attack, but in fact PSG still failed to win the UCL title.
just imagine if these three players were in teams from other leagues such as Madrid, Munich or Barcelona, they could certainly help win the UCL title.

well, from here we can assess what efforts PSG must make and in my opinion it enough to maintain a reliable coach for several seasons to provide the opportunity to take this team to a higher level and also provide experience to all players to be mentally ready to compete in the UCL.

It's too good to be true, my friend. PSG will never make it happen since the club was not strong enough to compete with other top clubs on the European continent, like Real Madrid and Manchester City. Enrique has to work even harder than before in order to win UCL this season. Some clubs from La Liga and EPL are reaching their peak performance this time.
It's time for PSG to beat barcelona first to prove if it's worth enough to win UCL this season. Let's see how PSG can pass Barcelona at this stage.


The match against Barcelona will begin soon. It's time for the club to ensure that it can show that PSG has the potential to win the UCL this season. PSG vs. Barcelona will be a tough game for both clubs. I'm still thinking Barcelona is a bit superior here compared to PSG.
It means that if barcelona may be winning the first leg soon. The first game is gonna be at home for PSG and it surely gives disadavnatage to the barcelona but im not see it as a problem considering the fact that

BTTS is a sensible option when someone considers betting on the Barcelona to win the away game against PSG a very risky decision but it's likely to happen.
I am not willing to bet on a big TO caused by PSG being able to win against Barcelona with the narrow score. This is the possible scenario to happen soon.

[Strongkored]

I would guess that PSG may go for a manager change as well. I know that is not talked about a lot right now and maybe that won't happen but I think that they need a bigger name. I have always said the same thing and I will keep saying the same thing until I die, what PSG needs is Zidane. They will win the league and the cup anyway, they already win the league all the time and if they cared a bit more then they would win the cup too, that is just expected at this point.

However, if they get Zidane then they may win the UCL as well, he can build a team that would be better than the current one, even without Mbappe. Dude knows his own style and he knows attacking football, if nothing else it's guaranteed that they will have fun games to watch.

Zinédine Zidane would have been PSG coach for a long time if he really wanted to, but after not being at Real Madrid he actually rejected all offers from other clubs and reportedly his desire was to become coach of the French national team, but the FFF preferred to extend the contract of Didier Deschamps.
Lusi Enrique is also not just an ordinary coach in my opinion because he has quite good achievements with Barcelona, so PSG choosing him is not the wrong thing.
In my opinion, why PSG is only strong domestically is because they made a mistake in building the club, they keep changing coaches every time they fail, making it even more difficult for them in the UCL. We can see Manchester City who didn't immediately replace Pep Guardiola after several seasons City hasn't been successful in the champion league until they finally get what they expected.
Having the same coach stay longer at one club will make it easier for him to build the desired team rather than continuing to change.

[Velvet78]

I assume PSG would be the only team Zidane would be interested in if he becomes okay with managing a team again. His wish has been to manage France indeed but it doesn't look like he will get the opportunity in the near future for now. I would really like to see Zidane managing PSG some day. I believe they can be more successful with him.

He would only need to be free about building the team according to his own system. PSG have a lot of money so they can do the same as Manchester City have done for Guardiola. But before anything else I don't know whether Zidane would think of such agreement with them. 

[Google+]

But in reality PSG is not strong team without Mbappe and Enrique is too confident if he wants all PSG players to play well without Mbappe, PSG have played several times without Mbappe and they looked bad.
Enrique really has to bring in players who are equal and have very good playing qualities if they want to be able to play better and stay close to winning the title in every competition.
After all, Enrique is great coach and he should know what to do and what he must have so that PSG can continue to have high quality performance.

When Messi and Neymar leave PSG, PSG is not as vulnerable as we are today when they will be abandoned by mbappe, it is quite natural that when messi and neymar leave But PSG still strong, because mbappe is still able to make PSG triumph in Ligue 1 because the league situation is not competitive, but maybe when mbappe leaves later, of course PSG will lose its sharpness, especially in the last few matches PSG is difficult to win when mbappe is reserved,  that's why I agree a little bit if you say PSG will look weak if they don't get a mbappe replacement next season.

PSG's dependence on mbappe is so great that PSG are willing to pay a heavy price for mbappe to stay, but I think it is appropriate for PSG to realize if mbappe is no longer loyal to PSG so it is better for them to find the right substitutes, at this time PSG only need qualified squad depth and also of course sharp strikers who are able to replace mbappe's role,  Because after all, Enrique's experience will certainly make PSG more complete, for now I think the competition in Ligue 1 is over and now PSG and Enrique should focus on the Champions League to face Barcelona with mbappe before he leaves next season .

I would guess that PSG may go for a manager change as well. I know that is not talked about a lot right now and maybe that won't happen but I think that they need a bigger name. I have always said the same thing and I will keep saying the same thing until I die, what PSG needs is Zidane. They will win the league and the cup anyway, they already win the league all the time and if they cared a bit more then they would win the cup too, that is just expected at this point.

However, if they get Zidane then they may win the UCL as well, he can build a team that would be better than the current one, even without Mbappe. Dude knows his own style and he knows attacking football, if nothing else it's guaranteed that they will have fun games to watch.

Zinédine Zidane would have been PSG coach for a long time if he really wanted to, but after not being at Real Madrid he actually rejected all offers from other clubs and reportedly his desire was to become coach of the French national team, but the FFF preferred to extend the contract of Didier Deschamps.
Lusi Enrique is also not just an ordinary coach in my opinion because he has quite good achievements with Barcelona, so PSG choosing him is not the wrong thing.
In my opinion, why PSG is only strong domestically is because they made a mistake in building the club, they keep changing coaches every time they fail, making it even more difficult for them in the UCL. We can see Manchester City who didn't immediately replace Pep Guardiola after several seasons City hasn't been successful in the champion league until they finally get what they expected.
Having the same coach stay longer at one club will make it easier for him to build the desired team rather than continuing to change.

I agree with you that PSG should learn from other successful teams when they are able to win big trophies when retaining a coach for several years so that they can go through a process that is not instant. Big teams as long as their position in the league does not decline they will give the coach the opportunity to continue. provide the strategy and the team is also willing to accept it and retain the coach for several seasons to see significant progress, Pep Guardiola, Mikel Arteta and Jurgen Kloop are old coaches of big teams but they also need time to achieve success with their team, maybe if PSG want to be patient, one day PSG can win the title they dream of if you give Luis the opportunity for the next few seasons.

But that would be the worst timing ever if they now sign Zidane when Mbappe is about to leave the club. By the way I doubt that if Mbappe leaves the club, Zidane would not want to become the coach there. They should have tried like never before when there was still Neymar, Messi and Mbappe. But I think at the time Zidane was still a coach (or again) at Real Madrid? I am not sure about the timeline back then, but I think that was the situation. Now when Mbappe leaves PSG is not the same team anymore.

Zidane certainly doesn't want to take risks, especially since his record as a successful coach is still neat. With the depth of the current squad, Zidane is certainly considering his decision to coach PSG and I don't think that will happen. Mbappe has left at the end of the season and there are no further negotiations to be discussed with PSG.

If we talk about Messi's arrival at that time, it is clear that Zidane was still without a club and maybe that was the right time for PSG to persuade him to come. But it seems that PSG doesn't think like that or maybe PSG has made an offer but Zidane is still reluctant and doesn't want to train again before the right time. The criteria for the team that Zidane wants to coach are very high and maybe he will want to coach again if the squad he is given is as great as the one at Real Madrid when they won the champions league hat trick.
