I think it's easy to guess what approach Luis Enrique will take to PSG next season instead of just talking about his players. Luis Enrique is a coach who relies on ball possession where he has proven this with Barcelona several seasons ago. He needs a good midfielder to build his game instead of just a striker, but still he needs good players in attack.

Apart from midfielders and wingers, I think Luis Enrique will also rely on LB and RB to support his attack. This will not be too different from the strategies of Pep Guardiola, Xavi or some of the former Barcelona coaches. But the hardest thing about PSG at the moment is the confidence in the players and the relationships between the players. Enrique has to create a great dressing room atmosphere, it's an effort that will drive more change in team play in a game.

Nothing is certain at Parc des Princes this period, although the club bringing in new faces. PSG has lost most of their most important players this season, and they cannot afford to lose Kylian Mbappe as a free agent this summer. PSG cannot force a player to stay at the club; rather, they may convince him to stay by offering an increase in wage earnings. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi already has long-term plans for Kylian Mbappe, but the Frenchman is yet to make a decision on his career, whether he will stay with the Parisians or move to a new club where he can rewrite a new chapter in his career.

But, in this case the Paris Saint Germain team cannot force the player if he wants to leave, especially for a young player like Mbappe he definitely needs something that can bring him to reach a wide area of football and set new records in his football career. And the options available right now is to leave and play for a club that has wider range of competition. Keep in mind it all happens if he wants to leave, and the question is does Mbappe want to leave PSG at this time?

If they can sell Mbappe this year, they will of course make money, but if they can't, Mbappe will play for one more year with PSG and will be transferred for free at the end of the year. To avoid this, PSG will have to ask for a slightly more affordable transfer fee for Mbappe. Of course, the team that will want Mbappe will have to meet both Mbappe's salary and testimonial. That's a very high amount of money.

IMO, what Enrique is facing is not as easy as we say. but if I may assume, Mbappe is still very much needed by PSG. especially now, PSG are targeting Vlahovic. suppose Vhalovic joins PSG. at least, PSG still has a very sharp front line. there is Mbappe, Vhalovic who is the center forward and Nyemar or Asensio can fill the right wing. Alternatively, Enrique rotates players according to his needs. but PSG will not allow it, because if Mbappe is not willing to sign a new contract. His future with the club is uncertain. however if I refer to other reports, as I presume. that Neymar still wants to play for PSG, at least for the next season.

As Romano said, Neymar about his future. "I hope that at PSG (next season) I have a contract, no one told me about anything. Well, I'm pretty sure with Neymar's statement, Enrique will probably include him in the list of players included in his project. Ideally, Enrique should persuade Bernaldo Silva to join PSG. Because after all, it's not possible if Silva forces him to move to Barcelona. Anyway, actually now PSG still have a pretty good squad. It's just, they still have to bring in some newcomers. And if Mbappe leaves, maybe that's even better. Because, no Again, there are players who have special features, so Enrique can focus on building a PSG squad to make it more competitive.

I'll not guess that, because PSG will not let Mbappe go for free, also they has confirmed this and in terms of the value which can they got is not small money. They will loss if they let Mbappe go for free, in business it's not a good thing, they should at least earn some money. Previously Messi left for free but not for Mbappe, because after all that man still has high value on the table.

When Psg formed the dream team, it was mentioned that they could take the UCL for a few years, but the fact that they were far from this success began to overshadow the faith of the players in the team. Moreover, there were unsuccessful matches in League 1, and they became champions by having difficulty in the league. If Mbappe, who is their best player, leaves the team for free next year, there will be thought of leaving the team for other players as well. A difficult year awaits PSG.

If this wasn't a strategy move by Kylian Mbappe, it is already set in stone that he will not extend the contract with PSG, which means that they want to get a fee for him and let him go. That is what the PSG boss said and that is now almost two weeks ago. Now it depends on Khelaifi and whether he keeps his word, but he still has a backdoor because he could say that no club was willing to pay what they want for Mbappe. This transfer will take a lot more time and won't be off the table in the next week or so. They are all taking it to the limit right now and especially Mbappe is playing games.

PSG will definitely try to keep Kylian Mbppe in their squad, but on the other hand Kylian Mbappe can force PSG to let him go because they don't want to extend his contract again. There is no doubt about Mbappe's quality, it has been recognized by the world so far but PSG don't have many options to make Mbappe stay with them longer considering Mbappe only has 1 year left on his contract.

Mbappe is important for PSG, because of his quality and ability as a striker. But in any case, PSG will have to part ways with the striker if there is no agreement between the two. Kylian Mbappe is wanted by top teams, it's because of his quality.

Kylian Mbappe is undoubtedly an amazing footballer. Kylian Mbappe is currently one of the best attacking players in the PSG team. Therefore, the PSG authorities will not want Mbappe to leave the team, causing danger to the team.

Of course PSG don't want to lose Mbappe without profiting from his sale. I think it would still be good to lower the price instead of letting him go for nothing, but many teams are monitoring the player's situation so far. I believe PSG will eventually lower their prices when neither team really wants to pay the amount they are asking, that is a consequence that will probably be considered.

Luis Enrique has the desire to keep Mbappe in his squad, but he has no more power than to make his wish known. Kylian Mbappe will decide his future at the end of next season, but he also has the possibility of staying at PSG if something is reached in a new deal.

It is unfortunate indeed, but it is also proof from PSG that they really want to have a great squad. But unfortunately, the achievements PSG can achieve last season are limited to Ligue 1 only and of course, with the money that has been spent does not provide satisfaction for PSG. Moreover, next problem is about Mbappe also likely to leave for free, thus PSG maybe will lose again with a bigger loss. But yes, because for next season PSG has a new coach, then maybe it could be the right way for PSG to have a stable and more consistent performance in the Champions League too of course. Because, if next season PSG only gets the same achievements as before, then of course the key players and star players maybe will really leave.

PSG need to get money from Mbappe so they will not release the player. They will not terminate the contract and let Mbappe goes away as a free agent. They can reduce price at the end to sell Mbappe but they can hold the negotiation to bargain as highest transfer price as possible.

Problem with Neymar is he is very vulnerable to injury and PSG can no rely on Neymar as latest seasons show that Neymar usually was in hospital by injuries when PSG need him most.

Yeah he has to sale off many players he does not plan to use in a new future to save salary budget for the club and to have vacant positions for new players. Definitely he does not want to lose Mbappe but the future of Mbappe is not controlled by Luis Enrique.

The best scenario for Luis Enrique and PSG is to release Mbappe so that the focus of the other players in the squad is not divided by the contents of the transfer. There are many things that Enrique has to fix, not just Mbappe alone, my prediction is that if Mbappe still refuses to extend his contact then he will be released next season. If Neymar stays at PSG so he can be relied upon for another two or three seasons, Enrique only needs to organize the squad from the defensive and attacking midfielder sectors.

If you read the news about their transfer market, the arrival of several new players made Enrique have to let go of several players to streamline the squad, I think it is very likely that players returning after a loan spell like Icardi will be released in this summer's transfer window.

What can be expected from Enrique as PSG coach this season, in my opinion, is to create ️A well-organized team ️mutual understanding with the team, and an individual approach to each player. take them to a qualitatively new level of play ️ and Force players to play to show their abilities to the fullest. as was done with Barcelona with perfect and attractive tactical ideas and gameplay.

Of course, PSG must continue to work hard to build a team with a strong squad when the star players have left, and everything needs a process. yes, PSG's mistake a few seasons ago was true because they hoped for an instant.

I hope that Mbappe will die at PSG soon so that Enrique's performance will be easier. Because the presence of Mbappe, who is still confusing his transfer, will disrupt the concentration of other players, especially since Mbappe doesn't feel comfortable at PSG.

Messi transferred from PSG to Inter Miami team and we can say that PSG actually did it to get rid of this salary burden. It may be a little sad for PSG that he transferred without a fee, but instead we can say that the fee he received from other players is enough, albeit a little.
PSG, who transferred Ebimbe to Frankfurt and Bitshiabu to Leipzig, obtained a total of 21.50 million euros in total from these players. PSG, who paid 159.50 million euros in transfer fees to the players they transferred, can say that they are currently at a loss of 138 million euros as a transfer balance sheet this season.

When it comes to young players who are talented and can play for PSG, then there are a lot of them and of course PSG has more than enough finances to actually make all of that happen, it's just that there isn't one for this season transfer.
PSG can take many young players and indeed the one that is most discussed is Osimhen, but until now it is also unclear whether PSG will actually take Osimhen or not.
Mbappe is still playing for PSG and in fact is still being maintained, making other clubs who want him have to discourage him, but for 2024 we don't know whether Mbappe will leave or there will be a contract extension signed.

What do you think? will Mbappe go or stay at PSG?

I don't think losing a few star players won't make Luis Enrique confused this time around and he's definitely got something ready that will help PSG improve next season. Even if Mbappe leaves, PSG will not be in big trouble because this team is filled with more average players at this time, so they won't depend on just one person.

On the other hand, if I'm not mistaken, Vlahovic is predicted to fill the striker position if his transfer process from Juventus goes well and that means Mbappe's position will return to the left wing next season. Especially now that PSG still has Neymar and of course they won't be confused by the depth of their current squad. When it comes to the champions league, I think PSG's level will still remain the same, that is, at least advance to the round of 16 and for Ligue 1, there is no doubt that they will remain the defending champions.

Actually without Mbappe is big problem for PSG but I believe with Luis Henrique can finding right replacement for position leaves by Mbappe and Lionel Messi. There are not any player important than teams and I think if Mbappe leaves PSG exactly have new replacement for his position, Victor Osimhen have linked for replacing Mbappe position if leaves PSG and I think right level quality have by Osimhen success become top scorer in Serie A last season. Indeed Osimhen, PSG have rumor for signing Harry Kane and looks many alternative for replacing Mbappe position and as PSG fans don't disappointed if can't extend contract.

With the money PSG have they will be able to buy whoever they want although of course the results will not always be as expected, Harry Kane seems to be closer to Bayern Munich, Victor Osimhen can be the next striker they can look at especially this player is younger than Harry Kane so he can play longer at PSG.
If Mbappe is really going to leave Ligue 1 because Luis Enrique has experience at Laliga it is very possible that PSG will buy players from Laliga based on the advice of his new coach and he is not a striker whose name is always said to be going to PSG, because anything is possible, but as long as Mbappe is still at PSG the opportunity for this club to find another striker may be postponed unless they are looking for a second line striker because of the busy schedule they will have both domestically and in Europe.
