The end of the Republic of Players.
On the eve of challenging Arsenal for what constitutes the biggest match of its start to the season, Paris Saint-Germain presents itself with a stone in its boots: the absence of Ousmane Dembélé, sidelined by Luis Enrique. This Monday, the Spaniard had to undergo his favorite exercise (or not), namely the traditional pre-match press conference, and the journalists did not fail to question him about this off-field event. « What I mean is, if someone doesn’t meet their obligations to the team, then they’re not ready. I consider that this week is important, that this match is important, and I want my players to be in the best possible condition. I put him aside and I want the best for my team”declared Enrique at first a bit evasive.
A decision fully validated by Parisian management, according to Enrique
Before saying a little more following a follow-up from a journalist. “Do you really think it’s easy to create a team? That we do it by pressing a button? No, there are difficult circumstances, difficult decisions. I am 100% committed to my decisions, I am 100% sure of my decisions and I consider it the best thing for the team, without a doubt. But my decisions are not irreversible. I signed for this club to make a team with an identity, which plays football. Was I hired to win titles and win the Champions League? Certainly not. I was hired to do the best I could. I have the support of the management, the sports director, the president. I am here to create a team and also do it with Ousmane Dembélé. […] There is a problem with the player’s commitment to the team, but not a problem between the player and the coach.”he concluded on the subject, before no longer wishing to talk about it further.
And we won’t know the end of the story right away.
