Jérome Rothen believes that Luis Enrique is no stranger to the reinstatement of Kylian Mbappé at PSG.
At the microphone of his show Rothen ignites », Jérôme Rothen spoke on Monday about the situation of Kylian Mbappé at PSG. Mentioning in particular the fact that Luis Enrique certainly played an important role in the reinstatement of the captain of the Blues.
“The soap opera is behind, believes Rothen. Good for football, for PSG, for Kylian Mbappé, analyzes Rothen. I think there were a lot of things on this file… There was also an ego problem at one point. And that’s not good when there’s ego like that, on contracts, on words, you can’t find common ground. It went far, he was punished. Nasser (Al-Khelaïfi) showed a new policy and that is very good. But concerning Kylian Mbappé, yes we have seen a warming of relations in recent days, he has been reinstated, he has played in Toulouse, his attitude is excellent. We feel that the workforce today corresponds to him a little more. I wish him that the dynamic continues in the locker room and that we finally have real workers. »
“We are lucky to have a coach who wants to make them work, and wants to put his ideas in place, without having his hands tied. There was a warming in the speech between Nasser and Kylian Mbappé, but there was also intervention from Luis Enrique. I am convinced that the coach has also stepped up, because he has the shoulders to ensure and assume this position. He doesn’t want to pay for the stories of the past. He added his little grain of salt by saying: ‘listen, try to settle, on one side or the other, but Kylian Mbappé, his place is at PSG’. », considers the former Parisian player.
” I’m not necessarily convinced that he will extend until 2025. But the club will not be harmed because I think they are smart enough on both sides. Nasser has shown he’s been a little tougher, but unfortunately he’s also been caught up in his past bullshit, of signing him to a 2+1 contract where the player decides. Why did it warm up? Why did Nasser Al-Khelaïfi once again open the door to Kylian Mbappé? Because Kylian told Nasser the club won’t lose. (…) How not to be wronged without an extension? It could be that, a waiver of bonuses, yes. (…) In any case, I find that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi was perfect on the Mbappé case. On this he was absolutely right, all along the line. », still believes Rothen.
