The future of Kylian Mbappé, leaving for Madrid, does not excite everyone in Ligue 1…
Kylian Mbappé blazed on Sunday on the Montpellier lawn. While the French champions quietly dominated the Hérault club (6-2), the top scorer in Ligue 1 consolidated his position by scoring a spectacular hat-trick. A performance of choice which Luis Enrique delighted in.
“Mbappé was exceptional, we have to take advantage of him as much as we can, when we can no longer take advantage of him we will have to raise our level. Since he was born, he has been scoring goals from outside the box,” he enthused at the microphone of Prime Video, fully convinced that “life was much more beautiful with Mbappé on the pitch”.
“He’s no longer there, he’s no longer there, it doesn’t matter”
On the other hand, grimaces were the order of the day on the Montpellier side. And the future of Kylian Mbappé, at the heart of all the discussions for several weeks, is the least of the concerns of Michel Der Zakarian, the Hérault coach. “I don’t give a damn. He's not there anymore, he's not there anymore, it doesn't matter.”he told the media.
And the XXL performance of the Bondynois did not inspire the former player any more. “He scored three goals for us, we let him hit twice and we know that, when we give him time, he has talent… He put it where he needed to. We still conceded three goals like that”, he whispered, obviously regretting the lack of pressure from his men on the Parisians. In addition to Kylian Mbappé (50th), Vitinha (14th) and Kang-In Lee (53rd) had plenty of time to adjust Dimitry Bertaud from the edge of the area.
