Paris fans do not celebrate the league title .. And Leonardo: We have to understand the situation and we will make decisions

Paris Saint-Germain sporting director Leonardo has admitted mistakes after the frustrated fans refused to celebrate the record-equalization of the 10th French Ligue 1 title yesterday.

Instead of the usual shouts and enthusiastic cheers on such occasions, the fans quietly left the Parc des Princes after the team secured the title with a 1-1 draw with Lens.

For the fans, the title did not convince them after another failure in the Champions League.

And coach Mauricio Pochettino's team was eliminated from the round of 16 by Real Madrid after wasting its 2-0 lead in the confrontation.

"I made mistakes. I did things in transfers and management that might have affected the results," Leonardo told Canal Plus.

Saint-Germain and Saint-Etienne shared the title of the most crowned club in the French top flight.

However, despite the abundance of talent in the squad, led by Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi and Neymar, Saint-Germain will have to be satisfied with the local league title this year, after also an early exit from the French Cup.

"Everyone has an impact on the season and we must take responsibility," Leonardo added, referring to "making decisions" after the end of the season without making it clear.

On the public's behavior, the Brazilian official said, "Expectations were high, so the disappointment is just as great."

Midfielder Marco Verratti was annoyed by the indifference of the fans in Saturday's match.

"We made every effort and at some point we have to move forward," the Italian said.


"Last year we didn't win the title and that hurt us a lot so we have to enjoy as much as possible when we win. This atmosphere is unfortunate but football is our passion. The football club is about energy between the team and its fans so we have to understand deeply what happened this season," said captain Marquinhos. We make decisions."
