PSG star Kylian Mbappe has offered his sympathies to coach Thomas Tuchel after his sacking yesterday.

Mbappe has spoken in glowing terms about Tuchel after the German was sacked by Paris Saint-Germain the day after he had guided the team to a 4-0 win over Strasbourg in Ligue 1.

Tuchel replaced Unai Emery at PSG in May 2018, with the Spaniard moving to Arsenal for what proved to be a fraught 18-month spell.

Posting on Instagram, Mbappe said: "It is sadly the law of football. Nobody will forget your time here. You wrote a wonderful part of the club's history and I say to you: 'thank you, coach'."
