Luis Campos, sporting director of Paris Saint-Germain, told the podcast 'Rothen s'enflamme' that he made a mistake in signing Kylian Mbappe and Neymar in the same transfer window, as they play in a similar position.
Luis Campos believes he made a mistake in signing Mbappe and Neymar in the same summer. The former joined PSG from Monaco and the latter from Barcelona. The fact is that, a few years later, they are going through a difficult time that has been reported in the press for weeks. The sporting director commented on it in the podcast 'Rothen s'enflamme'.
"We made the mistake in the past of signing two players in the same position in the same market," he said, referring to the Frenchman and the Brazilian. Focusing on the most recent transfer window, this summer, he said: "The transfer window is not good because we are missing players in key positions and because we have overlapping players in other positions.
Today, the players involved in this issue have generated a tense atmosphere in the dressing room at the Parc des Princes. In addition, the emergence of Leo Messi, a good friend of Neymar, has further distanced Mbappe, who could have signed for Real Madrid but decided to renew his contract with the French side.
Now, he faces a challenging season in which he must overcome so much trouble to remain among the best in the world, especially ahead of the World Cup in Qatar, where he will represent the French national team. Unfortunately for him, the national team has led him down other controversial paths, such as the alleged episode of witchcraft with Paul Pogba as the alleged instigator.
