A choice by Luis Enrique contested by many observers. It must be said that the capital club recruited two number 9s this summer, Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos, for a total amount of 170 million euros.
But Mbappé in 9, that should not last… According to the newspaper information The Team, the period during which the kid will occupy the center-forward position will not exceed the winter break, believe some people internally. He should therefore play his last match in this role against Metz, this Wednesday (9 p.m.), as part of the 17th day of Ligue 1.
Mbappé “not fulfilled” in 9
After the break, the Blues captain should return to his favorite position, either as a second striker in a 4-4-2 or on the left side of a 4-3-3. Positions where the former Monegasque would feel more comfortable. “On his positioning, without his state of mind being clearly revealed, the attacker really gives his teammates the impression of not being fulfilled”, explains the sports daily. Enough to push Luis Enrique to review his plans, he who nevertheless believes that the positioning of Mbappé in the axis is less penalizing for the defensive balance of the team.
