Mbappé, the strange attitude

Four games without scoring and everyone is panicking around Kylian Mbappé. For some, it is the recent attitude of the PSG player which raises questions.

Kylian Mbappé’s summer was very special. Sidelined for a few days and deprived in particular of the PSG tour to Japan for having refused to activate the optional third year appearing on his contract, the striker was disrupted in his preparation. Finally reinstated in mid-August, Mbappé scored quickly and today has seven goals after eight days. Except that for four matches, he has no longer found the net. Enough to alert observers.

Something is not going well for Kylian Mbappé, it is the certainty of some of them and as a result, the player’s actions are scrutinized, dissected, analyzed. On the L’Equipe channel, Damien Degorre conducted a study on Monday evening of the attitude of the French international, more specifically during the match won on Sunday by PSG against Rennes (1-3). “ Against Rennes, there was something that struck me. Maybe you will find it anecdotal, but on the opening score, I saw him impassive, impassive, he did not raise his arms. On the second goal, the same. I don’t know. I have the impression that he is having a start to the season that does not suit him.

Delayed backlash?

And the journalist returns to Mbappé’s contractual situation. “ He is still in the last year of his contract with PSG. We know how things went this summer. I never would have imagined that Kylian Mbappé would stay in Paris while the whole team went to training on the other side of the world. I’m not sure he remained completely impervious to what happened. » The current bad luck of the Parisian gem would therefore be a sort of delayed repercussion of the summer events. Hoping for him and his team that he manages to recover quickly.
