Luis Enrique’s attitude towards journalist Alexandre Ruiz on Sunday, after Rennes-PSG (1-3), continues to provoke reactions. Some saw this as public contempt.
Well known for his enmity towards journalists, Luis Enrique demonstrated it once again on Sunday evening, when answering questions from Alexandre Ruiz. Visibly exasperated by his interlocutor’s questions, the Paris Saint-Germain coach then called him a journalist ” the most negative in the history of football“ taking care not to look at him during a good part of the exchange, preferring to turn his gaze towards Ludovic Giuly, consultant for the channel Free Ligue 1. Alexandre Ruiz was able to count on certain support.
Follower of Paris Saint-Germain for RTL, Philippe Sanfourche felt that Luisi Enrique’s attitude did not serve him in the eyes of the public. He expressed this on Monday on social networks. “ That Luis Enrique hates journalists, it doesn’t matter. But for him not to understand that through the press he is primarily addressing supporters and spectators is annoying. The questions asked are the ones fans are asking. By despising the media, he despises the public.“

Very mixed feelings
But the journalist’s opinion was not really shared by Internet users. “Maybe that was true before, but now fans need less and less journalists to feel close to the coach,” said the latter, for example. “It’s still a very big shortcut. Rarely, if ever, do we say to ourselves after a match: ‘ahh this is the question I wanted to ask’. », added this one. Points of view widely echoed in the comments.
