PSG ace Kylian Mbappe has confirmed reports of speaking with France teammate Paul Pogba over claims he hired a witch doctor to harm him.

Pogba's brother Mathias has stated that the Juventus man had hired a witchdoctor to put a spell on Mbappe.

"He called me and gave me his version of events," he said.

"Right now it's Pogba's word against his brother's. I prefer to trust my teammate's word. I prefer to trust the word of my international teammate."

PSG kickoff their Champions League campaign against Juve.

"This match is important for a club like ours. We want to start the European competition well at home. It's up to us to play a good game tomorrow to continue this good run," Mbappe said.

"My role hasn't changed since last season. I'm still trying to play well, to be decisive and to win as many titles as possible."

Much has been made about his relationship with Neymar, and gave a curious response.

"It's our sixth year together," he said. "We've had periods of being best friends, and others of talking less."

Part of the row is said to be over who should be the first choice penalty taker at PSG.

"When you play with players of the calibre we have, you have to learn to share," he said.

"Being designated the main [penalty] taker doesn't mean I have to take all the penalties."
