There’s been plenty of criticism thrown at Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino, whether it’s due to tactics, lineups, or substitute changes. For now, the Argentine tactician remains at the helm of the capital club, but many want him to depart.

Nonetheless, it seems as though Kylian Mbappé isn’t one of those who might want a change in the managerial position as it looks like he backs Pochettino. The 23-year-old spoke to CNN and discussed his relationship with the 49-year-old. 

“He’s a great manager, a great man, an honest guy. I’m really happy to work with him. I have a really great relationship with him. I talk every day, all the time, with him, and we are really close,” Mbappé said.
