After systematically taking him out during the match, Luis Enrique is likely to leave Kylian Mbappé on the bench in the Champions League.
And if Kylian Mbappé started as a substitute, Tuesday evening during the 8e return from the Champions League against Real Sociedad. A scenario that would have been considered ludicrous just a few days ago, but which today seems entirely possible. And some are even quite fearful about its realization.
On Sunday evening, former French international Robert Pirès indicated that Luis Enrique “is capable of putting him on the bench against Real Sociedad” and that it would not be “not surprised at all” if he were to do so.
Luis Enrique 100% at fault with Mbappé
Like other observers and followers of the Ile-de-France team, Pirès is very critical of the Spanish coach for the way he manages his star. “There is a problem with Luis Enrique. There is a radical change in behavior on his part towards Luis Enrique. We don’t know what he’s playing and where he wants to go. We see it every time, when we ask him the question (about Mbappé), he is annoyed.”
Finally, the 98 world champion claims that Luis Enrique “doesn’t have to talk about next season, but about what’s coming.” “And what happens is Real Sociedad,” he recalled.
