Former Newcastle United target Hugo Ekitike may now be regretting his decision to join PSG over the Magpies after struggling to settle in the French capital this season. The young attacker opted to join the Ligue 1 giants on loan over the summer, despite significant interest from Eddie Howe's side.
Ekitike is currently mixing it with some of the best stars in the world but is finding it difficult to get in Christophe Galtier's team over Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar at present. Although the 20-year-old has featured in nine matches so far, he has only played 149 minutes of football.
Speaking ahead of PSG's clash this weekend, Galtier admits Ekitike isn't satisfied with his game time thus far and has subsequently lost confidence during his short stint in Paris. “I had a long discussion with Hugo last week. Obviously, he isn’t satisfied with his limited playing time," the PSG boss told reporters.
