Jean-Michel Aulas, former president of Olympique Lyonnais, gave his opinion on the loss of the best player in Ligue 1.
The announcement of Kylian Mbappé’s departure from Paris Saint-Germain provoked contrasting reactions. While in Spain his possible arrival at Real Madrid raises some concerns, in France, the former president of Olympique Lyonnais and current vice-president of the French Football Federation, Jean-Michel Aulas, was understanding.
For JMA, Mbappé’s departure is “more emotional” than financial. He also highlighted that Mbappé played for PSG for seven years, which is a long time for a player of his age. “Kylian is indeed an era, but he stayed at PSG for seven years, it’s magnificent,” he said. Myself, in the best period of OL when we were champions every year – and we were seven times in succession – no player ever stayed for seven years. And they were often international players. »
Mbappé and France, it’s not over
The former boss of Les Gones also maintains the hope of seeing Mbappé participate in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. “But Kylian remains in the French team. And we know his attachment to national events. I hope we will have good news for the Olympic Games soon too,” added Aulas.
