Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique was cagey when addressing the hot topic of his reunion with Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé in Wednesday’s Club World Cup semifinal, although he did explain a change in philosophical stance during his year apart from the Frenchman.

PSG will also be missing Pacho through suspension in the Club World Cup final, with the centre-back sent off against Bayern in the quarter-finals, which led to a two-game ban in the tournament.

Kylian Mbappe and Luis Enrique will be reunited at the FIFA Club World Cup when Real Madrid take on Paris Saint-Germain. Their player-coach relationship in Paris has become a source of intrigue.

Luis Enrique prepared for Paris Saint-Germain to go for the second spot in the Club World Cup final against Real Madrid. He will not waver from his belief in fluid, free-flowing football and sees his side as proof that it is his job to "get out of a zone and stop controlling things" at the highest level.
