The management of Kylian Mbappé’s playing time was a controversial subject until the end of his campaign…
Seen in Cannes with his friend Ousmane Dembélé during his days off, Kylian Mbappé continues to fuel the debates. Since Monday, a question has come up tirelessly in the environment of the capital club: will the star be started by his coach Luis Enrique in the Coupe de France final on Saturday against Olympique Lyonnais?
Called to comment on this matter, Jérôme Rothen, renowned for his collusion with the Mbappé clan and the management of PSG, gave a clear trend. “ At PSG they hushed up the affair. They said there was no business, it was an off day and the players did what they wanted. Except, no, they don’t do what they want because they have an image to give. They worked a lot on this image and it was quite positive”blurted out the RMC consultant.
“Mbappé will be upset in terms of playing time on Saturday evening”
Rothen developed his remarks by explaining that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and Luis Enrique had not appreciated this trip to the south of the two players. ” EIn terms of image, it’s not great what Dembélé and Mbappé sent. Within the club, they are not surprised but upset. The president is upset but the most important thing is Luis Enrique. But Luis Enrique, he has already put him in the closet several matches.“
Direct consequence: the possibility of seeing Mbappé start on the bench would be real. “IHe hardly plays anymore, he just played the title match in front of his home crowd for his farewell. It’s not the best preparation for a big match. Mbappé will be upset in terms of playing time on Saturday evening…”concluded the former French international.
