But what happens to Randal Kolo Muani? Not coming into play during the previous day against Olympique de Marseille, the French striker was once again left on the substitutes’ bench this Saturday evening against RC Lens.
The French striker has less and less playing time with the Ile-de-France team. Many players now go before him in the rotation. Marco Asensio, Kang-In Lee, Ousmane Dembélé and even Désiré Doué are preferred at the forefront of the attack.
At a press conference, Luis Enrique was questioned about the non-use of his player during the last two Parisian outings. The Spanish manager kicked in slightly regarding the situation of his number 23.
“I count on all my players. This is my idea as a coach and I am a coach willing to change my mind at any time based on what I see. I don’t complain about any player,” he declared to journalists. Not very reassuring words for the French international.
And the situation should not change between now and Wednesday and the Champions League match against Atletico Madrid as part of the 4th day of the league phase. The former Eintracht Frankfurt player should, barring any last-minute surprises, start on the substitutes’ bench.
