Kimpembe overtaken by Mbapp in the hierarchy for the captaincy.
Kylian Mbapp (24) could have even more responsibilities in the coming months. Considered one of the best players in the world, the striker is one of the favorites to recover the captain’s armband of the French team following the withdrawal of Hugo Lloris. At Paris Saint-Germain, he could also benefit from a promotion from next season.
Kimpembe did not know
Monday, against the Pays de Cassel (0-7), in the Coupe de France, the top Parisian scorer also occupied this role in the absence of Marquinhos, meaning that he became de facto the second of the Brazilian from this match. . A choice justified by Christophe Galtier. I had decided that Kylian should be the second captain. He stayed at PSG and he deserved to have this armband when Marqui is not there. said the coach of the capital club, whose reflection on the subject began several weeks ago.
Only, the one who was vice-captain until now, Presnel Kimpembe (28 years old), was not aware of this change in the evolution of tasks. These last hours, I could hear and read many things about me. I therefore wish to make things clear in order to avoid continuing to spread false information about me. I was not made aware of this decision, this is completely false… That said, I will always respect the decisions of the club said the French international on Instagram.
Consequences on his future Paris?
Absent from the field for more than two months due to an Achilles tendon injury, the central defender threw a stone into the pond by making it clear that this unexpected downgrading was not to his liking. A withdrawal which could probably have consequences for his future as the 2018 world champion thinks of a new experience abroad. At 17 months from the end of his contract, the one who has only known the Paris SG tunic has perhaps, for the first time in his career, felt the wind turn.
