Chosen by Paris Saint-Germain as ambassador to bring the Champions League trophy before the final against Arsenal, Presnel Kimpembe was invited by Marc-Olivier Fogiel on Thursday on RTL.
The journalist reminded him of the comments made by Kylian Mbappé on May 12 during an interview given to Vanity Fair. The captain of the Blues had firmly displayed his opposition to the National Rally, which earned him a sharp reaction from Jordan Bardella, the president of the far-right political party.
“Do you agree with what Kylian Mbappé says? »the interviewer then asked the central defender. “It doesn’t inspire me. That’s what he thinks. What if I’m not politically engaged at all? It’s not a question of being committed or not. Everyone is free to say and think what they want. We are in France. He has the right to speak. He has the right to express himself”replied the Qatar SC player.
