Lizarazu Defends Mbappé, Criticizes PSG’s Lack of Gratitude After His Departure
Lizarazu defends Mbappé against criticism after PSG departure
Paris Saint-Germain’s recent success raises questions about Kylian Mbappé’s impact on the team following his move to Real Madrid. Bixente Lizarazu, a former French national team defender, voices his disapproval of the criticisms directed at the star player.
PSG’s newfound cohesion post-Mbappé
This season, PSG demonstrates remarkable team synergy, translating into outstanding performances across various competitions. This transformation becomes more apparent since Kylian Mbappé’s move to Real Madrid last summer.
Some analysts argue that PSG’s improvements are linked to Mbappé’s absence. However, Bixente Lizarazu disagrees with this sentiment, emphasizing the lack of appreciation for the club’s all-time leading scorer.
Mbappé’s flourishing start at Real Madrid
Lizarazu highlights Mbappé’s impressive debut season with Real Madrid, where he scored 30 goals and provided four assists in 43 matches.
"While some claim PSG thrives without him, it’s equally valid to suggest that Mbappé excels without Paris Saint-Germain," Lizarazu remarked, pointing out the elegance lacking in the criticisms directed at Mbappé after his seven-year contribution to PSG. According to Lizarazu, the player and the club had grown apart, making the separation inevitable.
The former Bayern Munich player shared his thoughts during a discussion with the French sports outlet L’Equipe, insisting on respect and recognition for Mbappé’s achievements both at PSG and in his promising start at Real Madrid.
