Zapping Our Mondial EXCLUSIVE: Moussa Diaby’s “Little Brother” interview!
Always close to PSG for many years, the former President of the Republic Nicolas Sarkozy is often described as influential around the capital club. As such, his word counts when it comes to discussing Kylian Mbappé’s choice to leave PSG. “Kylian gave 7 years to the club, we must not forget that. He gave us extraordinary emotions. He illustrates what we all have as a temptation: we always think that the grass is greener elsewhere,” Sarkozy believes in the columns of Le Parisien.
A way of doing things that he doesn’t like
The former head of state who does not hesitate to dig Mbappé on his way of doing things when considering this departure. “I can understand that he wanted to leave, I can understand his dream but I understand more difficultly the way in which he implemented it. But it is his choice”, slips Sarkozy, who then evokes the new project put in place by the club of the capital. “The era of PSG with stars was undoubtedly necessary to create an international brand image. And I do not forget the happiness of having seen Ibrahimovic, Neymar, Messi, Beckham, Mbappé play… It was exceptional. It was undoubtedly time to remind that the collective game takes precedence over the quality of a player. This is the exact philosophy of the current coach.”
