Kylian Mbappé disgusts Spain, the improbable reconversion of Wayne Rooney

Mbappé wakes up Paris

PSG fans had a very good Wednesday evening. Thanks to two goals scored by Kylian Mbappé and Bradley Barcola in the second period, Paris dominated Real Sociedad this Wednesday evening in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League (2-0). But hey, that doesn’t mean that the country’s journalists are reassured for the return match… As we can read on this first page of The Team : “the Parisians feared the worst until Kylian Mbappé scored“. Number 7 is still seen as the hero this morning: “he turned on the light in the Park“, as written Le Figaro. On the side of Parisian, we highlight his speech when receiving the man of the match trophy. “We wanted to win at home. That was the goal, and we achieved it. There is another match to play. In the meantime, there will be 3 or 4 meetings in France. We are happy, but the work is not finished“, he warned. We are going to open the pages of the Basque edition of Mundo Deportivo. For Spanish journalists, “PSG scores goals without needing to play well. It’s especially Mbappé who gets all the attention on him, once again, “without forcing, he marks“. The newspaper also praises the Frenchman. “Mbappé appeared, to remind San Sebastian fans that the Champions League is another world, that geniuses mercilessly torpedo your illusions. Some dazzling appearances from the best player on the planet made the match very difficult for Imanol’s troops.*”

Rooney puts on the gloves

In England, many football fans must have been surprised to see Wayne Rooney everywhere on the newsstands this morning! As revealed by Daily Mirror This night, the Manchester United legend will retrain as a boxer to supplement his income. After a difficult adventure in Birmingham, the ex-English footballer does not intend to remain unemployed and will make his fists do the talking. He had preliminary talks with the influential boxing promotion on social media: Misfits. This division is not subject to the rules of the British Boxing Board of Control, so Rooney will not participate in professional fights… But still, the events of Misfits are broadcast on the streaming channel DAZN and it brings together a mix of celebrities and especially influencers. Rooney, who boxed during his childhood, could find himself facing Jake Paul, KSI, Pont Wayne, or even… Jamie Vardy and Rio Ferdinand! Well, for the last two, these are speculations from the Sun, so this is information to be taken with a grain of salt. On the other hand, Rooney should receive quite a jackpot, because Logan Paul had collected more than 3 million euros for a fight in October 2023.
