Daniel Riolo opened a big file on PSG during the broadcast of the After Foot show on Monday evening. During his numerous tirades, the RMC editorialist criticized the new sports policy of Paris Saint-Germain which aims to be anti-stars for a specific reason. Explanations.
Over the years, the stars who have made the world shine PSG on and off the field all left one by one. Whether Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Thiago Silva, Neymar, Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos or even Kylian Mbappé to name just a few.
“It’s an aberration since PSG’s problem is not whether they had stars or not”
Since the appointment of Luis Enrique as coach in the summer of 2023, one year after taking over Luis Campos as football advisor to PSG, the new sporting vision of Paris Saint–Germain is focused on the long term and the development of young talents and not the big names of European and world football. A drastic change that was not the right one for Daniel Riolo.
“The project today has gone from stars to no stars. This is an aberration since PSG's problem is not whether they had stars or not. The problem is not having known how to manage them. He could bring back Miss World, Miss Universe… If you know how to manage them, it’s always better to have great players.”
“When you have built your story around big names and you no longer have any…”
“The problem was to pile them up and make them incapable of playing together or not to know how to manage them and to see them better in nightclubs than on the pitch. These are bogus, useless discussions. When you have built your story around big names and you no longer have any and the famous collective project does not work, the business is impacted”. declared the editorialist of RMC during theAfter Foot Monday evening. THE PSG would therefore go straight into the wall.
