The PSG coach would not manage Kylian Mbappé’s playing time as he wishes. The Qataris would force him to play less since the announcement of the latter’s departure.
Sunday, at 1 p.m., Kylian Mbappé was on the substitutes’ bench at the kick-off of the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Stade de Reims, counting for the 25th day of Ligue 1. The Parisian number 7 n He only came on in the 73rd minute of play, in place of the Portuguese Gonçalo Ramos.
Since the announcement of his departure from the capital club at the end of the season was released in the press, Luis Enrique has given significantly less playing time to his star striker. “It’s a balance of power that is being established between a player who is going to be free and a coach who wants to win the Champions League and other trophies”judged Michael Landreau, on the set of the Canal Football Club in Canal+Sunday night.
Luis Enrique under Qatari pressure?
The former goalkeeper believes that this is not Luis Enrique’s own management. “The management put enormous pressure on his coach. So, Luis Enrique is trying to find the best balance”, indicates the sports consultant, putting forward the theory that the Qataris would have wanted to sanction Kylian Mbappé. Thus, the Spanish coach would have been forced to drastically reduce the playing time of the native of Bondy.
For PSG’s next matches, the Spanish technician is likely to continue this management of the captain of the France team. In the Champions League, if we take the example of the return match against Real Sociedad, the former Monegasque should retain starting status.
