Paris boss Mauricio Pochettino recently gave an interview to El Larguero, where the Argentine spoke about Mbappe's future and rumors that Zidane would be in Paris.
Pochettino said: "Mbappe will make a decision after the Champions League match against Real Madrid in Paris and what I see is that he is focusing on doing the best possible for Paris. We respect Mbappe, and the future depends on his decision.
Hopefully Kylian Mbappe will spend his entire career in Paris, that's what we want, and in my opinion, Mbappe should be seen as a top five player in the world, there's no doubt about that.
Zidane? I don't know, the decision doesn't depend on me, Zidane is a great coach, that's for sure, and he's also French... But it's a matter of management or club president thinking about it. ”
Barca are interested in strengthening their right-back position in the summer and Azpilicueta, whose contract is expiring, is their first target, but Chelsea have a clause in hand that could prevent Barca from poaching in the summer.
Barca are interested in waiving Azpilicueta or Ajax Mazlawi in the summer, with the former having already communicated with the Red and Blues and the 32-year-old veteran willing to land at Camp Nou at the end of the season, but the problem is that the deal does not depend solely on the wishes of Azpilicueta and Barca.
According to Marca, Chelsea want to renew their contract to keep their captain, and they hold the terms of Azpilicueta's contract extension for two years, once this clause is activated, then espanyol will automatically renew his contract until 2024, not only that, Marca pointed out that the clause only needs to be used unilaterally by the Blues, so there is no need to negotiate with the players.
It is reported that if Azpilicueta cannot be signed, then Barca will seek to acquire Mazlawi, and the contract of Ajax full-back also expires in the summer.
