Kylian Mbappe in fresh PSG teammate clash after Neymar feud and Lionel Messi fallout

Kylian Mbappe faces a fresh problem in the Paris Saint-Germain dressing room after Presnel Kimpembe confirmed he was not made aware of the striker replacing him as the clubs vice-captain.

Mbappe captained Les Parisiens and he netted a club-record five-goal haul in their 7-0 thrashing of French sixth-tier minnows US Pays de Cassel on Monday. He led the team out for the first time in the absence of club captain Marquinhos with his increased status at the club following his new three-year contract penned last May.

PSG boss Christophe Galtier explained: "I decided that he is the second captain since the beginning of the season, he deserves to have this armband when Marquinhos is not there because he has decided to stay." However, that decision was not communicated to Kimpembe, who had previously held the status.
