What's the story?
Thomas Tuchel remains coy over the future of PSG superstars, stating that he can't promise that Neymar and Kylian Mbappe will stay at the club.
In case you didn't know...
Neymar and Kylian Mbappe remain two of the global superstars in football. Both these stars have played a pivotal role for the Ligue 1 giants since their arrival.
Since joining from Monaco in 2017, Mbappé has proven himself to be an asset for PSG and he is currently enjoying a stellar campaign with the Ligue 1 side. The 20-year-old finished second in the European Golden Shoe race with 33 league goals. Thanks to his exploits, PSG secured the Ligue 1 title weeks ago despite the absence of Neymar in their ranks.
The French forward recently hinted a move away with his latest award speech.
“I am really very happy and want to thank all of the people who put the league together. This is a very big award and time for me.
I have learnt much here and maybe it's the time to take on more responsibilities, maybe at PSG, of course, or maybe elsewhere with a new project. In any case thanks everyone!"
On the other hand, Neymar had a bitter second half to the campaign filled with injuries and controversies. The Brazilian forward has racked up 23 goals despite not featuring for his side for over numerous months.
The heart of the matter
PSG boss has claimed that he wishes to keep the players but he won't promise anything.
Speaking in an interview, Tuchel said:
"There is a lot of speculation which means we have a lot of quality and talent. My wish as a manager and as a coach is clear, as I want all my players to stay at PSG and stay with our project.
"The work is not finished, it has just started. My wish is clear, but I can't promise it as that would be naïve and I don't want to be naïve in this business."
What's next?
Both Neymar and Mbappe will focus on their respective international team duties as the season ends.
