Friday evening, at 8:45 p.m., Paris Saint-Germain will officially launch its season. The capital club will travel to Le Havre for the advanced match of the first day of Ligue 1. On the eve of this match, Luis Enrique appeared at a press conference.
Obviously, the Spanish coach was not spared from questions concerning Kylian Mbappé. Particularly about the replacement of his former number 7, who had his most prolific season at PSG during the previous exercise. “My solution is the one I will find. It is better if four players score 12 goals each, that will make 48 in total and that is better than 40,” Luis Enrique replied.
Luis Enrique has ‘always loved’ Mbappé
A Spanish journalist then asked him about Kylian Mbappé’s first steps with Real Madrid. “But how boring these Spaniards are!” exclaimed the PSG coach. Are you still here? Did you follow the Olympics? Another question about Kylian! Well, I have nothing to hide. I have always loved Kylian, a very endearing, extraordinary personality. I loved the footballer and the man and I take this opportunity to also salute his brother. I wish him the best and that Real Madrid loses against us.
For his first official match with Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé scored in the European Super Cup against Atalanta Bergamo. Well served by Bellingham, the captain of the French team found the fault in breaking, in the middle of the surface, in the 68th minute of play.
