Leandro Paredes on Kylian Mbappé: “I am not the one to talk about him” | OneFootball

Leandro Paredes joined Juventus from Paris Saint-Germain on a season-long loan deal in the last summer transfer window.

If the reports are understood to be accurate, then his contract with the Italian club includes an option to buy worth €22.6 million, meaning that he will make the permanent switch next summer if certain conditions are met during his loan spell at Juve.

Speaking to ESPN Argentina, the compatriot of Lionel Messi explained the relationship between him and Kylian Mbappé. The 28-year-old midfielder said:

“I am not the one to talk about him. I had a connection with the ones I had a relationship with. But the ones I didn’t have a relationship with, I can’t tell you about them.”

Since moving to Italy, Paredes has emerged as a protagonist in Juventus’ midfield, owing to the injury issues that the Piedmontese club is currently dealing with. Meanwhile, the Argentinian has earned five appearances for the Old Lady across all competitions thus far.
