Bradley Barcola left the French team rally, replaced by Florian Thauvin. A month after the tensions that appeared between the medical staff of PSG and the Blues about the injuries of Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé, a new episode comes with Barcola. According to his club, the FFF press release said too much by evoking a “Chronic lesion of the right hamstring since the PSG Champions League match against Atalanta Bergame”. In other words, the former Lyonnais would have played injured in recent weeks, reason for his package with the Blues. The PSG did not appreciate at all, publishing in turn a message taking “Knowledge with amazement of the press release” tricolor. This little Guéguerere between the two institutions does not please and shows the lack of communication, in particular between the two medical staff, when they have a common interest, and this annoys Jérôme Rothen on RMC. If he had defended the French team a month ago, this time the consultant attacks the staff of the Blues.
“”This famous press release on the Bradley Barcola package. When there is a concern with your club, you come to make it noted (in Clairefontaine, editor's note) then you come home. There is no press release. Here we go into details. The medical staff is the same for a few years. Remember how they communicated on Karim Benzema's package on his package in Qatar. (…) They make press releases when it suits them. It's completely deviousRothen protests on radio on Tuesday. On arrival, they say chronic problem. This implies that he would have played injured. That he has a little embarrassment, it remains internally, there is medical confidentiality too. (…) This is a small settling of scores compared to what happened during the last rally. On the last rally with the injuries of Goué and Dembélé, I wanted more than PSG because it is really not to respect the supervision of the French team. Now I have the opposite speech. This is not normal because the doctor of the French team, Fréderic Le Gall, he forgot something. In the past, there were relations between clubs and selections, a fluid, transparent discourse, but now they no longer speak to each other. It is God the Father and it comes out of the press releases which put difficulties.»»
