Paris Saint-Germain will face Real Sociedad in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 first leg on Wednesday at the Parc des Princes. As a result, the Spanish media will descend into the French capital this week.

Manager Luis Enrique must prepare for the questions regarding Kylian Mbappé and his future. While there will be inquiries regarding the matchup against Real Sociedad, others might ask about the 25-year-old and the possibility of him heading to Real Madrid.

After the 3-1 win over LOSC Lille on Saturday night, Enrique had to answer a question about the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner’s future. Instead of being rude with his answer, the Spanish boss decided to be cheeky with his response.

“We will see it against Real Sociedad,” Enrique said with a smile (h/t Paris Fans). 

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti was also asked about the Frenchman’s future on Saturday. The Italian boss noted that he wants the media to stop asking him about the player. Ancelotti noted that he has the best players already in his squad.
