Even if we had a good idea of who was hiding under the headgear, the element of surprise was essential.
We can no longer stop progress, unless that is not the term that best suits… By arriving completely hooded on Monday in Clairefontaine, Ibrahima Konaté has certainly succeeded in his attempt and his only objective in this area, that of making the buzz. The Liverpool defender says he is in any case quite amused: “It’s funny. Jules Koundé showed some very good plays and I’m here to compete with him, ‘it’s going to be war between you and me’. It’s good war, we’re focused on football but we like fashion, it’s a pleasure for everyone, you’re also waiting for it when we arrive on Monday. Some perhaps more than others, but in fact, the meeting is starting to become unavoidable.
“Have you ever seen them in the same locker room?”
Enough to provoke reactions of all kinds on social networks, starting with a famous brand of fruity drinks which did not hesitate to compare Ibrahima Konaté to his iconic pear, because of the round and green side offered by this entirely masked face from the player: “Have you ever seen them in the same locker room?”
As always a good customer, not only visually but also in front of the press, Ibrahima Konaté also knows how to raise the negative side of this relationship with the image and social networks in general, particularly the impact on young people regarding everything that concerns to wars all over the world. More lightly, he finally spoke out in favor of the idea of a general strike because of the infernal pace: “If it continues with this dynamic, if the players decide to bang their fists on the table and we are all together, if there is a movement that can lead to understanding, of course I will be there and I think all the players will follow.” And too bad for the next parade.
