Galtier and Mbappé criticized for their cynical reaction at a press conference

Mbappé and Galtier could not help but let out a spontaneous laugh when questioned yesterday at a press conference about the possibility of traveling by train after they criticized PSG for overusing the team’s plane.

A reaction that did not go down well with the club's top directors, conscientious about climate change issues: "He took it lightly," a source in the capital club told Le Parisien in reference to a Mbappé who is concerned about the image he projects.

PSG makes around 25 trips throughout the season, which are planned based on a number of criteria: travel cost, journey time and accessibility. The club normally prefers the plane and also their coach, with which it went to Lille recently and with which it may soon go to Auxerre, Troyes or Reims: "I asked to go by tricycle with a sail," joked a Galtier who also played down the importance of this issue.

Travel by train is not an option for PSG

This in the wake of a message on social networks from Alain Krakovitch, director of the SNCF railway company, in which he offered his services to PSG. However, the club explains that the train option is more uncomfortable for three reasons: Parisian stations are not easily accessible, security requirements are not met and sometimes it is not possible to travel at night. A major problem for a team that needs to rest with two matches a week.
