In just a matter of days, Kylian Mbappé has undergone a significant change in attitude, coinciding with PSG’s qualification for the Champions League semi-finals.
Dubbed the « new Mbappé » by some, the Parisian player displayed a different demeanor in the return leg against Barcelona compared to his subdued performance in the first leg. According to a source close to the club, Mbappé exhibited the desired attitude, showing positivity and alignment with coach Luis Enrique’s philosophy. This stands in contrast to his more reserved demeanor in recent weeks.
The sports daily also highlights Mbappé’s commitment during the crucial preparations for the European match, where he assumed a leadership role and set an example for his teammates. Luis Enrique’s staff took note of this change in behavior, which undoubtedly contributed to PSG’s success.
Furthermore, Le Parisien reports that Mbappé addressed the team in the locker room after the match, adding a touch of humor by teasing Ousmane Dembélé.
