Mbappe has always been the top scorer for PSG. Missing mbappe means missing someone who is capable enough to score a lot of goals for the club. Take a look at mbappe's stats since he was joining in PSG.



This is proving how capable mbappe as a football player. He is consistently scoring a lot of goals in any seasons. Mbappe's journey has already ended. PSG needs to find a good replacement for him. The current striker is not good enough to be compared with mbappe. PSG shall use the money available to get a new player who is in the same calibre as mbappe.
This is not gonna be an ezy job but let PSG tries to do this. PSG needs to ensure the club will find a good replacement for mbappe.

Goncalo ramos is rarely performing well in PSG. That is why im doubting him will able to become a good replacement for mbappe. PSG needs to find soeone who is capable enough to play as

I don't sure PSG will get downtrend performance for next season after leaving by Kylian Mbappe, its difficult decision accepted by PSG after Mbappe not extend his contract but Luis Henrique will make PSG keep dominance in Ligue 1 and reach higher level round in Champion League next season. Have break out almost two months before next season begin I think PSG start to sign top players for replacing Mbappe position although they can put Goncalo Ramos as central forward for Mbappe position.

All top teams when leaving by their favorite players can recovery well and the empty position replacing well by other player, I remember with Real Madrid after leaving by Cristiano Ronaldo replace well with consistent perform of Karim Benzema. Not close possibility with PSG performance for next season better than their performance in this season although leaving by Kylian Mbappe.

PSG will only be a well-known team in league 1 (not in other competitions like the UCL) and this is a very reasonable reason when Osimhen doesn't want to go to PSG and previously last season I always emphasized that it would not be possible and would only be It's just a rumor or more precisely that Osimhen prefers to join a team from a more popular league to get higher achievements.
I'm not saying that league 1 is not popular, but compared to the EPL, league 1 is definitely just below it, which will not be able to bring Osimhen to develop and get prestigious titles in the future, as we have seen how long Mbappe has been at PSG without being able to get achievements in the UCL and Also, several star players who were at PSG finally left this team.
we don't need to hope to see Osimhen at PSG because Enrique already has other alternatives to strengthen PSG without star players and this is the latest way for Enrique to build a strong team performance without star players.

PSG initial goal was to bring in star players such as Neymar, Messi, Mbappe and Sergio Ramos, wanting to increase the popularity of League 1 and PSG to become representatives of League 1 which would continue to increase that popularity but in the end the attitude of the PSG president made Mbappe uncomfortable being at PSG and chose to leave PSG, while Mbappe is the last star player that PSG has.
so what you say is very true, in the end League 1 will decline slightly when all the star players leave League 1 and the followers of the star players will also follow where these players go.
and regarding competing in the UCL, it seems that without star players PSG will still fail because previously they also had many quality players but also failed and all this must be accepted by PSG who must build the strength of the team without any more mainstay players.

One of the factors in the popularity of League 1 in the past was because of the presence of PSG star players such as Lionel Messi, Neymar and also Kylian Mbappe, but the PSG star players left League 1 and moved to other leagues and the only star player who remained for a long time was Mbappe, but unfortunately this season This will be Mbappe's last season in League 1 and next season we won't see Mbappe at PSG or in League 1, so it's only natural that League 1's popularity will decline because their fans will definitely start watching Mbappe play in other leagues and no longer watch League 1. and we know how popular Mbappe is among PSG fans and the world's eyes.

PSG is not a competitive club. This club shows everyone that having star players is not enough to provide good performance in international competitions such as the Champions League and many players leave because PSG is unable to provide prestigious titles because the chances of winning them are very small, who knows what will happen? what happens to PSG next season is how they compete in the absence of star players. I'm not sure PSG can play well in the Champions League. Most likely PSG will be quickly eliminated before reaching the final.

PSG's strength will be clearly different next season as a result of Mbappe's departure to Real Madrid, but to just become champions again in Ligue1 I also think that it won't be that difficult for PSG because considering that the other teams in Ligue1 are also not experiencing such significant developments. However, for the UCL competition, PSG certainly won't be able to do much if there are no more reliable players in their squad next season. Moreover, other teams that will also enter the UCL next season, such as Real Madrid, already have quite an extraordinary line-up of players next season.

Since defending Monaco, it has become clear how much potential Mbappe has and after that he showed how successful he was in winning the World Cup and getting the title of best young player.
This quality is what makes the difference, if we look at both of their respective track records, we will see that Mbappe showed all his potential for greatness as an attacker when he was still 18 years old.
Remember, 18 years old is still very young age, but Mbappe was able to achieve great success and achievements which indirectly at that time made him one of the best young players in Europe, and these are all facts that cannot be denied.

Regarding Goncalo Ramos, I admit that he is quite great player at the age of 22, but the question is whether at the age of 18 he can achieve great success and achievements like Mbappe?
This will be the main question and reason if want to compare Mbappe with Goncalo Ramos, after all, Mbappe has proven to everyone that he has very capable playing qualities since he was very young.
Moreover, what Enrique said about Mbappe and his replacement was more than enough for me to conclude all this.

The popularity of  Ligue 1 is going to decrease a lot since Mbappé has left PSG. He was probably the only one who was keeping the PSG club relevant towards the whole world. And now that he has left, the world is going to stop following PSG. The majority of the people that actually follow Ligue 1 do it because of PSG. So when the popularity of PSG is going to decreases, the popularity of Ligue 1 is going to decrease automatically. By now people also probably have understood that PSG is not actually a very competitive team. They just have a lot of money and does not have any competition in the domestic league. That’s why they have been able to win the Ligue 1 title again and again. They have never been able to win the Champions League trophy and I do not see them breaking that record in the next season as well.

After rumors of Mbappe leaving, since then there have been many rumors regarding who will replace Mbappe at PSG. The most significant are the rumors regarding Osimhen joining PSG. However, recently, Enrique stated that instead of bringing in players from outside, he would choose internal players who he already knew well and who actually had very good potential for PSG.

Yes, Ramos is the player who will replace Mbappe as striker at PSG. And this is not without reason. Ramos was able to make a very good contribution to PSG last season, even when Mbappe was still there. It's just that his name doesn't shine as high because he is less famous than Mbappe. However, regarding his performance, he can actually be relied on for PSG in the future.

Ramos provided 14 goals and also 2 assists this season. He is still only 22 years old, so he still has a long way to go and develop himself with PSG.

Even with mbappe the highest the have gotten most times has been the french Ligue 1, so it's no new thing, infact it's even a good achievement if they are able to keep on with the dominance and winning of the french Ligue 1 in the absence of mbappe, because that will mean that they were able to still maintain their strength a d their dependency wasn't on mbappe. Hopefully they get to achieve such height.

Going away from the french league to get a player to replace mbappe will not guarantee they will do any better in other Leagues either, it's high time PSG start looking and thinking differently in another direction because I observe they keep doing same thing over again and still remains within the Ligue 1 and almost never getting beyond. I don't and wouldn't want to undermine the chances of getting a good and Young talent around the french league who could be of a great importance to PSG, mbappe was once a young and up coming before he got to this point of his career.

Looking deep into the league ore wherever it is they would want to a d start building a team, by removing their mindset from the fact that they must buy a star player in oder for them to succeed beyond the Ligue 1 , after all they have the financial capacity, just like Leverkusen, they can look inwards and work with what they have and it's possible they can build a very strong team at all levels from there, this has always been my opinion.

Changing coaches which occurs 3 times in one season certainly affects the performance of the players and that is what made Osimhen fail to show his best form last season. It's not the player fault if we look into it in depth because the big mistake was of course the owner of Napoli who fired Spalletti which made the team situation even more chaotic with the new coach. So, last season must be a valuable lesson for the Napoli team or owner, where he must fully trust the coach he appointed.

It is not certain that Osimhen will stay with Napoli even though he is still under contract. Of course, if Napoli and Osimhen have agreed to separate then that will happen. But for now it seems like there is no team that is really serious about recruiting Osimhen. Osimhen is a player of quite good quality after he succeeded in bringing Napoli to the Scudetto trophy in the previous season so he is still a target for top European teams in this transfer market.

The latest news is that it turns out that the rumors regarding Osimhen going to PSg this season are just rumors. In fact, Enruqie prefers to promote their own players as replacements for Mbappe. because he realized that they still had a number of players who were truly talented and very suitable for the French club. Randal Kolo Muani and also Gonçalo Ramos are the internal players who will be further promoted by Enrique in the next season.

With this news, Osimhen's chances of going to Arsenal are even higher. Because previously, not only PSG but also Chelsea had not focused on this Napoli player.

I looked for news related to Osimhen and PSG, but what I found was old news or rumors. Even though he was linked with PSG, based on reports, Romano clarified that Osimhen is currently not involved in further negotiations with other clubs, even though there are rumors circulating. In fact, it is not rumored that Paris Saint-Germain is seriously targeting this player from Napoli. However, Romano also reported that negotiations will begin next week with several clubs who want his services. It could be that Enrique will take part in persuading him to join the Parc des Princess. Who knows, PSG is waiting for the right momentum. Even though it seems like it will be difficult to bring him in, if the financial effort is commensurate, it can attract Osimhen's attention to join. well, who knows, anything could happen anyway. but if that doesn't happen, or PSG is more interested in other players. they can easily bring him in, especially since the player is also interested in the salary offered.

What is certain is that Paris Saint-Germain will look for options to keep their team competitive since Mbappe was confirmed to join Real Madrid.
IMO, for me PSG has a sufficient squad if only for Ligue 1. They have Gancalo Ramos, Komo Muani, Dembele and several other young players. and other problems, Enrique needs a midfielder like he wants. As for Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha, not very reliable. perhaps, several PSG players will be released in this summer's transfer window.  and brought in some worthy entrants for several line sectors. I am sure that Enrique, with his experience, knows the needs of his team. especially, if the club returns to aiming for a Champions League mission. Therefore, there are no other words other than let's follow their hunt in the next transfer window.

If they do not make any adjustment to the team by introducing some new signings outside of the French League following the exit of Mbappe, trust me if I tell you that their highest achievement will be the French Lig 1 title next season. They should never nurse any ambition of getting close to the semi finals of the champions league like they did this last season. I am not saying that they do not have good players, just that the squad is not just competitive enough to face other tough European teams like Bayern Munic, Man City or Real Madrid. You should not forget that it is expected that Mbappe leaving will create a huge vacuum in the team which require an external person to fill.

PSG without Mbappe will not be as strong as they used to be, and winning the League 1 title is possible but might be a bit tricky and difficult because we have seen teams that tried to compete hard against PSG, and if these teams keep the pressure next season and PSG decided not to sign more players before the beginning of the season, then Brest, Lille, and some teams might win the League ahead of PSG.

I am very sure that PSG will use their money to sign more players to get a good replacement for Mbappe and some world class players that will keep the team going so that they will maintain their reputation of been the best team in the league.

When a club decline in performance, every member of the team will share the blame collectively and not all the blame pointed out to one person. We know how unplanned and challenging things have been for the Nigeria International, he's trying very hard to out himself back to good form because he needs to meet up the high expectations of fans and the club.

Are you pointing out the fact that Victor Osimhen doesn't have freedom of speech in Napoli? He's free and can take any decision that pleases him, he's one of the top goal scorers for the club and his contribution have been nothing but special and enormous.

If you talk about fan, PSG is losing a lot of followers right now. I am talking about the social media. Remember when Lionel Messi joined PSG, they were getting followers like crazy. I remember that I was actually trying to see how many followers they had gained. I would refresh the page once and it would go up like a couple of thousands. When Lionel Messi left PSG, they had lost almost around 800,000 followers only on Instagram alone.

now that Mbappé is also leaving PSG, I am not going to be surprised if I refresh the page and account goes down like it went up at the time Lionel Messi joined. It seems to me that at least a majority of PSG fans are actually there for some certain players. It is not like Real Madrid or Barcelona, because in those clubs it does not matter who stays or leaves, the follower count stays about the same. But I guess that is understandable because PSG does not have a history like them. They are only known for farming trophies in the Ligue 1 and not winning the Champions League title.

Well I say something, Oshimen's performance is not entirely his fault, it is also the fault of his coach, if the coach does not give him freedom to play as he makes his plays, he cannot do anything, he is tied, he has to follow the system under which the coach has assigned him, then in Serie A, Napoli was very bad, you can't deny it, they also had their good moment when they were champions, but times change, and football changes too, so now things are different for him, he already has other offers, PSG and Chelsea, either of the two teams would do him well, out of necessity it would be spectacular if he went to Chelsea who need to do something now.

Lille wanted to keep Fonseca badly. This says all about his abilities. But you know, when you're good, you're in demand. Everyone wants a piece of the action. And Fonseca, he's ready for the big leagues. He has the knowledge, guts, and vision to elevate Milan. His Lille record is excellent. He's a pitch genius. He takes risks and makes aggressive actions. Championing requires that. And Genesio? He's got work to do. Admittedly, Rennes wasnt great. Lille may be what he needs. Start over, new task. Undoubtedly, he has a wonderful team. He could ignite those guys, who knows? They may surprise everyone.

Ramos definitely looked like a great player, I think it wouldn't be really that bad to just not even buy any new players and just play the same PSG team without Mbappe, they would still win the league with this squad if you ask me. But, they won't do that because they have money, and when you have money that means we are not going to end up seeing someone who will do further, we are not talking about anything more.

We should consider the fact that we are going to make it work one way or another, and that means that we are going to see something change. We should probably consider how that type of situation could change peoples perspective, because if they have money and not spend, that would not be ideal situation for PSG, and fans would be mad.

It's not a question of replacing or not because in any case for Mbappe with his current condition I don't think he can be compared with some players especially for Ramos because they have different types. In terms of skill and popularity, Ramos still cannot be compared to Mbappe but this is a situation that must prove that PSG will continue to develop even better even though there is no Mbappe there.

They have until now been too dependent on players so that when these players leave it seems as if the club will not be able to develop very well. But in the end we also have to remember that this is a match between clubs where 11 players all have a role not just relying on one player alone and with Mbappe gone now PSG must be able to prove that they are not that dependent on Mbappe even though we know that in the last few seasons Mbappe was the backbone of the team. The last few seasons Mbappe was the backbone of PSG but now they have to get up because Mbappe is gone and it's time to now change the scheme that always relies on Mbappe and replace it with a good cooperation game so that they are glimpsed not only because of Mbappe but PSG is glimpsed because of a club that plays well in terms of performance and cooperation.
