Mbappé Looks More Like a Madridista: ‘L’Equipe’ Reveals the Trickery Pulled by Luis Enrique
Real Madrid is watching from a distance everything that happens between the offices of Poissy and the Parc des Princes, waiting for the opportune moment to act in the ‘Mbappé case.’
In France, they do not face the Christmas holidays with much tranquility due to the latest information published by L’Équipe. The French sports newspaper reveals a new disagreement between PSG and the forward from Bondy regarding what happened during the last summer, turbulence that seemed buried by the heat of the 23/24 season.
But according to what was revealed by the French sports daily, Kylian Mbappé would not have forgotten that Luis Enrique did not stand by his side or defend him when Nasser Al-Khelaïfi placed him on the transfer list last summer. The refusal of the Parisian forward to renew his current contract, which ends in the summer of 2024, led the Qatari leaders to sideline him from the first team and the pre-season tour of Japan as ‘punishment’ for this decision.
Luis Enrique, upon learning of this decision by the Parisian board, decided not to intervene and complied with what was agreed upon by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi. In addition, the Asturian coach made it clear that, in case Mbappé left the Parc des Princes, he would need a great replacement to try to fill the hypothetical void left by the Bondy forward. At no time did he try to bridge the gap between the board and the striker’s entourage.
Consequences Although Mbappé did not leave PSG that summer after several meetings with the PSG president, the situation between Mbappé and Luis Enrique has not yet been resolved. The information published by L’Équipe could be one of the reasons why the ‘7’ is more than ever considering his continuity in the French capital.
Especially if he has no allies in practically any entity in French football. The absence of an attempt by Luis Enrique to reintegrate him into the dressing room and the first team seems to have affected the spirits of the Bondy forward and could become a factor that plays against PSG during the upcoming transfer windows.
