Daniel Riolo did not like Luis Enrique’s statement that he was ready to lower his salary to skip press conferences. On X, the RMC consultant attacked the Spanish coach.
Arriving in 2023 as the new coach of Paris Saint-Germain, Luis Enrique had a satisfactory first season with a new title in Ligue 1, a victory in the Coupe de France and a Champions League semi-final lost against Borussia Dortmund, all in a context made difficult by the contractual situation of Kylian Mbappé, who sometimes had disagreements with him. In a multi-part documentary broadcast by Movistar+, the Spanish coach opened his doors to the media in the privacy of the Parisian locker room. In an interview with the Iberian media, the former FC Barcelona player confided that he did not like the exercises of press conferences and said that he was ready to lower his salary by 25% to no longer appear in front of journalists. A sentence that got people talking and made Daniel Riolo react, who has been making fun of Luis Enrique on social networks in recent hours.
Daniel Riolo criticizes Luis Enrique on X
After the publication of this new extract from the documentary, the consultant for RMC radio could not help but write a message on his official X account (formerly Twitter): “It’s a real shame that the Movistar documentary on Luis Enrique can’t find a broadcaster in France. It would allow us to see what kind of man he is. He reduces his salary by 25% if there’s no media. But he’s still making a documentary. And for free of course.”he joked in recent hours. Before the Ligue 1 match between Paris Saint-Germain and Stade Rennais this Friday evening, Luis Enrique will indeed be present at a press conference, the exercise he likes the least in the job. With a specific objective in mind, to continue the very good start to the season on the pitch against a Rennes team that has been inconsistent since the start of the championship. Hoping for a convincing performance, to at least try to calm down his relationship with journalists a little for a few days.
