Paris Saint-Germain club president Nasser said in a recent interview with the team newspaper that he expects Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe to do their best at the World Cup and consider their contracts after the World Cup.
Reporter: "Will you continue to invest in the transfer market this winter?"
Nasser: "Let's wait and see, but I don't think so. We no longer need to bring in players with our current squad. We have to make sure we have a stable squad and I think the team has a good atmosphere right now."
Reporter: "Galty and Campos seem to want to sign another defenseman ......"
Nasser: "They didn't make any demands because they know the squad very well. We discussed relevant topics together. I have a lot of respect for the team's coach and I appreciate him a lot because he is a great coach."
Reporter: "But there are rumors that you don't want to bring in this coach this summer ......"
Nasser: "This is obviously fake news! Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have signed a contract with him. He's one of the two coaches I respect the most."
Reporter: "Very few of this summer's signings have seen a player sit in the starting XI other than Vitinia. Are you happy with Campos' signings?"
Nasser: "I think he did well. It takes some players a while to get used to a new team and city. Another season has a long timetable and it's inevitable that there will be injuries. I am very happy with the signings made during the transfer period. We brought in some French players and young players who are preparing for the future. We haven't lost in the league yet (15 games, 13 wins and 2 draws). The team is growing and getting better."
Reporter: "Messi, Neymar and Mbappe have all been in very good form in recent months. Do you think this year is the team's best hope of winning the Champions League?"
Nasser: "I talked about it before this season started. We have to take it step by step. First, it depends on what happens after the World Cup. Then we will try to win Ligue 1. Also, in February, we will play Bayern Munich (Champions League 1/8 final)."
Reporter: "Before you announced that the team's goal was to win the Champions League, did you think that was a mistake?"
Nasser: "You may be right in your point of view and there is no shame in admitting that you have made mistakes before. Besides, our club is not only men's soccer, but also women's soccer, judo, premier ball, etc. ......"
Reporter: "How are the contract extension discussions with Messi going? If Mbappe doesn't renew his contract, will you choose to sell him in the summer transfer window?"
Reporter: "This is the year of the World Cup. I wish Messi and Mbappe the best in the World Cup, let's wait."
