PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN star Leandro Paredes revealed he has “no relationship” with Kylian Mbappe amid talk of tension inside the club’s dressing room.
Paredes, 28, left PSG in the summer and joined Juventus on loan in a deal that includes a £20.2million option to buy.
The midfielder left the Ligue 1 champions amid rumours of a rift backstage at the Parc des Princes.
Mbappe, 23, has reportedly been causing tension ever since signing his mega-money new contract with the Parisians, having argued with Neymar over who would take a penalty against Montpellier in August.
The star striker is also allegedly unhappy with how much more influence and respect the Brazil international has in the dressing room.
Paredes didn’t seem capable of addressing such speculation but bluntly admitted he didn’t really interact with Mbappe.

Paredes told ESPN Argentina: “I am not the one to talk about him [Mbappe].
“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.”
