A new controversy to conclude the season. As if that wasn’t enough. Champion of France for a while now, PSG traveled to Metz for this match which counted as butter for Luis Enrique’s team. The Spanish coach had decided to rest many major players, including Ousmane Dembélé and Kylian Mbappé. And the latter made the choice to go to Cannes rather than accompany their partners to Metz.
On social networks, images circulated in which we saw the two men at the restaurant, in a rather festive and joyful atmosphere. Nothing compromising or negative, but many Parisian fans did not appreciate seeing two of their major players appear as if they were already on vacation while their teammates were playing a few hours later, and that a final is coming this weekend. On social networks, Mbappé like Dembélé have suffered strong criticism from the twitterosphere Parisian in particular.
Dembélé is expensive
Daniel Riolo, famous Parisian editorialist, also let loose on RMC Sport : “Mbappé, we understand, it’s a breakup. But for Dembélé to be on videos, for us to see him partying in Cannes, it’s absolutely abnormal. It’s already abnormal for Mbappé, but it’s been a break for months. The more he can give a bad image and be backwards from what is necessary, the more he will do it. On the other hand, Dembélé is still under contract, he is supposed to stay and has just arrived. It is supposed to represent a framework for next year. At the time of the last day of the championship, he was not there, which was very surprising. Why isn’t he there, not even on the bench? Since Dortmund, he has barely played half an hour, why? Being in Cannes when he was injured would be even worse, but I don’t think (he’s injured). Plus, it’s filmed on these videos that everyone has seen. I am preparing for Dembélé to leave. Anyway, Luis Enrique doesn’t like the masses”.
Luis Enrique, in front of the cameras of Channeltried to deflate the controversy a little. “The six players who were rested have complete freedom to do what they want, to go where they want, to rest, to disconnect. If they are in Cannes, Asturias or whatever, that doesn’t interest me. This is not a problem “, explained the Spaniard. What to calm the Parisian supporters? Not sure…
