Leonardo didn’t have to listen to the complete William Sheller to be a happy man on Wednesday night. Interviewed by Sky Sports Italia after the shattering success of his PSG on the whitewashed grounds of Bayern Munich (2-3), the Parisian sports director spoke of “a demonstration of pride, in a complicated situation, with many absences, with the snow”, while acknowledging all the same “a little luck”.
In the process, “Leo” said he hoped for the returns of Verratti and Florenzi (Covid-19 for both) when returning to the Parc des Princes, before being launched on the subject that animates the backstage of the club: the contracts of Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, which end in 2022.
“We will also be happy to talk about contracts,” said the Brazilian leader. We will soon come to a more concrete situation with them, but now we have to focus on the competition, where we are entering the final phase. For now, it is therefore urgent to wait.
