“Kylian is one of the best, if not the best. We knew it would be difficult, that we couldn’t replace him directly. But he can be replaced with the team. And that’s what we’ve done. I think collectively, as a team, we are better and we have already shown that. Sometimes the goals don’t come, but we have a lot of excellent strikers,” PSG midfielder Vitinha explained in an interview with The Times
In the run-up to the crucial Champions League match against Manchester City, the Portuguese analysed what the season is like at the Parisian club… and did not hesitate to lavish praise on Luis Enrique. “I don’t think I could find a better coach. He matches my qualities with the ball. He is always very direct and does not lie. What he wants to say, he says. That is very good for a player, you always know what the coach thinks of you,” he added.

Vitinha
About the match against Pep Guardiola‘s side, the former Porto and Wolverhampton player was clear: “We are aware of the importance of this match for the standings. You can imagine how hungry we are to show everyone that we are a strong team and that we can perform in this type of match.”
In addition, Vitinha, who signed for PSG in 2022 and played alongside Mbappe, Messi and Neymar, recalled with special affection having shared a dressing room with the three stars. “I will remember that period for the rest of my career because I played with the best. It’s something I will one day tell my children and grandchildren about.”
