The France international has agreed to join Real Madrid in the summer.

“We have to get used to not playing with Kylian, sooner or later it’s going to happen,” Enrique said.

“When I consider it appropriate, he will play or not play, as all coaches do with their players.

“I want maximum competitiveness for next season. I want every starting player in this PSG team to think that this is a great opportunity. That’s what I’m looking for this season and next season.”

Goncalo Ramos rescued a point for the Ligue 1 leaders with a stoppage-time penalty after Amine Gouiri scored a first-half opener for Rennes.
