PSG coach Christophe Galtier addressed the media on the eve of the match once morest Toulouse this Wednesday corresponding to matchday 5 of Ligue 1. The French coach confirmed the negotiations for Fabián Ruiz, the almost probable departure of Paredes to Juventus and, in addition, acknowledged that Mbappé was not affected by the Pogba affair.
Rotations: “We have two important absences following the game once morest Monaco, Kimpembe and Sarabia. We hope to have these two players back for Saturday’s game. I have a quality squad, with the possibility of replacing a quality player with another who has talent. Yes, there will be fresh blood for the match once morest Toulouse. We play every three days, so we have to be careful not to lose players for the next few weeks.”
Fabian Ruiz: “You have the information that Fabián Ruiz is very close to PSG. There will also be departures in the team. We had had Fabián Ruiz in our sights for some time and we are negotiating. Nothing official yet. We have already seen signings that were made and finally they have not taken place”.
Paredes does not enter the call for having an agreement with Juventus: “Paredes will not be in the call. I spoke with him at the end of training. He has reached an agreement with Juve. His head is elsewhere, the agreement between the clubs is missing. I made the decision not to put him on the list so as not to have a player who might leave the club 24 hours later. As for Navas, today he is a PSG goalkeeper and he will be in the squad”.
How the “Pogba Gate” has affected Mbappé: “Kylian is in a very good moment. I have seen what has happened with Pogba, but Kylian does not show any sign of annoyance or concern regarding it.
The adaptation of Renato Sanches: “It is normal for the Verratti-Vitinha duo to work better because Vitinha has been there throughout the preseason. Renato needs to get his bearings. He has been studious and disciplined, but he also needs time to adapt to the needs of the team”.
“Anything is possible” with Skriniar: “I can’t say it’s completely over. There are always surprises in the market. Skriniar is a player who has been in the spotlight for a long time. Negotiations are very difficult with Inter, you have to respect his position. But everything is possible”.
