Luis Enrique against Kylian Mbappé. Who is right and who is wrong? Everyone has their own opinion, and since we know that the Spanish coach and the French star are at odds, some side with the first mentioned, while others defend the attacker. One thing is certain, the management of Luis Enrique and his management of the Mbappé case, whom he no longer hesitates to replace during the match, are being talked about, for bad or for good. Asked by RMC SportJunior Tallo, striker who worked alongside Luis Enrique at Roma during the 2011/2012 season, was keen to defend the former Barça man.

“It took a while to get me into the first team. I arrived there in February and during the first training, I was stressed, I couldn’t do a check so that proved him right. Luis Enrique gave me a second chance. I stayed with the first team until the end of the season. And before leaving, he even apologized, I found it a bit surreal. He told me: ‘I apologize for not having noticed your talent sooner and I hope you have a good career and I will call you back’. And at his next club, Celta Vigo, a year later, he called me. I was still at AS Roma, I had big dreams so I refused to leave but he is a loyal person. When he gives a word, he keeps it, he is very upright. He is really sure of himself, of what he knows about football. He has his philosophy and it’s a bit like a soldier who says: ‘I die with my philosophy’. He was a player with temperament and I don’t think he will change the way he sees football. But humanly, he is straight and I think that is the most important thing for a player, he does not lie”, he explained. That is clear.
