This Sunday evening, Paris Saint-Germain hosts Olympique Lyonnais, at the Parc des Princes (8:45 p.m.), in an important match for the title race, while Luis Enrique’s men remain on two consecutive draws in Ligue 1. Front with OL in great shape in recent weeks, the Parisians will not have the right to miss out and will have to demonstrate better offensive skill than in recent outings in the Championship.
For the occasion, Luis Enrique called his group of players and several players were not selected: Milan Skriniar, Presnel Kimpembe, but especially Randal Kolo Muani are absent. As for the French international, RMC Sport clarifies that it is not a physical problem, but a decision by Luis Enrique. The Asturian would have simply decided to part ways with his striker, for a purely sporting choice, during the clash on Sunday evening.
Randal Kolo Muani dismissed for sporting choice
A hard blow for the 26-year-old striker, who did not come into play during the victory in Salzburg, in the Champions League (3-0). No further details have yet been revealed, but Luis Enrique had already justified his decisions at a press conference: I have the same relationship with all the players. I’m a coach. I am not their father, their brother, their bro. I am the coach, he explained, while Ousmane Dembélé experienced the same sanction last November.
“I decide, I have to make decisions, I have no problem making them, the best ones for my team. Which means getting everyone out of the comfort zone, those who play more as well as those who play less. I’ve always done it in my career and I don’t plan to change.”added the ex-coach of La Roja. It remains to be seen what his explanations will be after the match against OL regarding Kolo Muani, who has only started four times this season.
