Mauricio Pochettino hopes Paris Saint-Germain and Kylian Mbappe reach a ‘solution’ amid the uncertainty over his future but refused to comment on Chelsea’s alleged interest in the player.

Chelsea have been linked with a move for the PSG superstar after he was excluded from a pre-season tour to Japan and South Korea.

Mbappe is the best player in Ligue 1 if not the world but Paris Saint-Germain made the decision to leave him at home as they believe he has already agreed to join Real Madrid on a free transfer next summer.

Unwilling to lose Mbappe on a free, PSG are now looking to sell the French World Cup winner this summer and have received a staggering bid from Saudi Arabia worth more than £250m.

Pochettino has great affection for his former club Paris Saint-Germain and his former player Mbappe and hopes they find the ‘best solution for both sides’.

Asked about Chelsea’s interest in the 24-year-old forward, Pochettino said: ‘In the past I was at Paris Saint-Germain and with Kylian so I need to be conscious that I cannot talk.

‘Everything you say about it is too much noise. It is a situation that is very delicate and one they need to fix in Paris with Kylian.

‘For our side I have nothing to say. We are working on our reality, our reality is different.

‘From my side, nothing to say, only to support them. I hope they find a solution for both sides. It is a club that I love, because I was a player, a captain and coach.

‘With Kylian we create a very good relationship, I hope they can find the best solution for both sides.’
