Marco Asensio, Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos no longer seem to have much credit with the PSG coach.

Sunday, for Paris Saint-Germain’s trip to Lens, Luis Enrique once again established Kylian Mbappé as center forward. Marco Asensio, Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos remained on the bench for the entire match.

For Daniel Riolo, the message from the Spanish technician is clear. “He doesn’t trust them. Asensio nothing, the other two (Kolo Muani and Ramos, editor’s note) nothing. It’s quite curious, I have difficulty understanding Luis Enrique’s offensive choices”, declared the sports journalist on RMC. His colleague Pierre Ménès agrees. “From the moment you choose to play Mbappé as a center forward, it becomes complicated for Ramos and Kolo Muani”confided the former star of Canal Football Club on his YouTube channel.

Last summer, the leaders of PSG poached Gonçalo Ramos to Benfica as part of a loan with a quasi-compulsory purchase option amounting to 80 million euros. Then, in the final hours of the summer transfer window, it was Randal Kolo Muani who joined the Rouge et Bleu for an amount of 90 million euros, bonus included. Four months later, neither of the two attackers has really given satisfaction. Worse, according to The TeamLuis Enrique would no longer hide his doubts in private about the abilities of these players to be a solution in number 9, during very high level matches.
