As he had done at a press conference before Ukraine-France (0-2), Kylian Mbappé again denounced the infernal pace imposed on footballers by international bodies. According to the Real Madrid player, the players have ” not the right to complain “, Because their privileged status often prevents the public from understanding their complaints. However, he recalls that after having played the Club World Cup this summer, his teammates and he had only two weeks of break before resuming training for this new season. A weary sequence, which highlights the physique and the mind of athletes.
“”No, we are not allowed to complain, because people do not understand that we can complain. But I think it's like that, you have to accept. Me, I always fought the fact that we play a lot of games, but I think that the reflection evolves and that I can understand that people, that the instances want us to play a lot of matches, because it is true that we earn more and more money. What we can fight us are the rest slices is to have a little more rest, may play the same number of games, but have a little more rest. Today we played the club World Cup, not even two and a half weeks later, we were already back in training, it's hard to cut for us, it's like the chain of a new season. But I understand the fact that people want to see more and more football because they are more and more passionate, everyone has their favorite teams, they want to see the players all the time, but we what we want is just having a little more rest, a little more time to blow to give a better quality of matches because I think that the matches will be more and more neutral, in the long term, there will be a little. And this is not the goal. The objective is always to entertain people, to give them the best version of ourselves every time and I think it goes through rest to try to always give the best version of yourself “, He said this Sunday, in an interview given to Anne-Sophie Lapix on M6.
