PSG Fed Up with Nordi Mukiele – What’s the Issue?

What’s going on with Nordi Mukiele? The player is completely sidelined by Luis Enrique, according to RMC Sport.

Since the beginning of the season, Luis Enrique has preferred to field newcomers at the right-back position. Carlos Soler and Warren Zaïre Emery have been the substitutes for Achraf Hakimi, leaving Nordi Mukiele with only a few starting opportunities. But why?

According to RMC Sport, PSG reproaches Nordi Mukiele for « behavior and habits off the field that are not always in line with the demands of high-level football. » Meanwhile, PSG Inside Actus on X assures that the « club doesn’t want to hear about it anymore. »

This exclusion is justified, according to RMC, by « a harmful attitude towards the group, as suggested by some sources, which would lead Luis Enrique to sideline him, » even though the player is appreciated by the Parisian squad.

PSG Wanted to Sell During the Winter Transfer Window

Officially, however, PSG emphasizes that there is no problem. Luis Enrique had been discreet on the matter in recent days. « There are players like Nordi who have played little. If there’s anyone who can change his decision, it’s me. But yes, my decisions prove what my preferences are, » he replied. « In the entourage of PSG’s number 26, there’s no desire to comment. It’s hard to imagine the player lingering in Paris in this context, » RMC Sport assures.

Mukiele almost left during the last winter transfer window. PSG hoped to part ways with him, and he was coveted by Bayern Munich this winter, but the two clubs failed to reach an agreement.
