The first problem for the Argentine coach appeared at PSG and this is what the young star would decide of his future.

Mauricio Pochettino will have a very hard work at Paris Saint-Germain. The Argentina needs to manage one of the most polemic locker rooms in soccer world, that has some difficult players, as Neymar, Kylian Mbappé or Ángel Di María. Just some days after his arrival, the problems have already appeared for him.

PSG played their first game with Pochettino as a coach and tied 1-1 against Saint-Étiene. After the match, Poche talked with the press and, when asked about the performance of Kylian Mbappé, he said that the French attacker has a lot to improve, a gesture that was seen as in the international press as a hard criticism.

Mbappé is one of the greatest figures of the Parisian side, for which he plays since July 2018, when he arrived from AS Monaco for $150 million. The forward has a contract remaining until June 2022 and, despite the efforts from president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and sport adviser Leonardo he has not accepted so far.

This gesture from Pochettino and the conflict that may now explode, was seen as the youngster as an option to move on. Florentino Pérez has been seducing him since a long time ago and the chances to move to Real Madrid are now bigger, with the player thinking that it is the best option for his future.
