Kylian Mbappe points finger at PSG hierarchy over Champions League failings
Kylian Mbappe has pointed the finger at Paris Saint-Germain's hierarchy for the club's continued failings in the Champions League.

The 24-year-old will then be able to leave the club on a free transfer, much to the annoyance of club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi. He has told Mbappe's agent and mother, Fayza Lamari, of PSG's intention to sell this summer in order to receive a transfer fee — something the player himself is seemingly unwilling to do as he wants to wait.
Mbappe's future aside, there have been murmerings of discontent in Paris for a while. Christophe Galtier has been replaced in the managerial dugout by Luis Enrique, while Lionel Messi has departed the club to join Inter Miami. PSG also want to rid themselves of Neymar, in what appears to be the dawning of a new era.
But past failures were the subject of a recent interview with Mbappe while on France international duty, and he was quick to point the finger at those in power at PSG for things continuing to go wrong.
