Everyone is talking about the magic trio of Paris Saint-Germain, Leo Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, but there is also a fourth side, who is not so happy with the amount of minutes this season. Hugo Actica arrived from Reims this summer after a season of 11 goals in 27 games, but the 20-year-old Frenchman has logged just 149 minutes this season for the City of Lights and has failed to score or score.
The champion coach Christophe Galtier He was asked about the actor’s condition and answered: “I had a long conversation with him last week, of course he can’t be satisfied, I told him that I have part of the responsibility for this, but he does too. When there is a trio like that in the attack, it requires you to invest a lot and not give up, when you play instead of one of them, there is obviously a comparison, it makes sense.”
The Frenchman continued: “He was justifiably disappointed in a number of cases that he did not open, I gave him the explanations for my decisions. Of course, this is a talented player, who must make up for it in training. We defined that he needs to work more, add intensity, so that he can be more significant when he enters.”
Aktika started only once this season, in the ninth round of the league against Nice on October 1. Since then he recorded seven minutes at the end of the game against Ajax, 16 against Benfica Lisbon and 21 against Maccabi Haifa on Tuesday: “Hugo lost his confidence because he didn’t play much, but his entry against Haifa was interesting. He needs to keep working hard,” Galtier concluded.
