“He is able to take over from Griezmann a little”
In a live broadcast this Friday, The Parisian takes stock of the performance of Christopher Nkunku facing Israel Thursday evening (4-1): “ Nkunku brings together enough qualities to claim a bright future in blue. The staff believes in him in any case. He is almost 27 years old, so he is no longer a beginner, but he has often been held back by repeated physical problems. If his body leaves him in peace, he is able, in his own way, to take over from Griezmann, even if the player denies it. He will also have to regain his starting stripes at Chelsea where his playing time is reduced. »
“The Mbappé-Nkunku duo can prove to be complementary”
« Despite everything, he is the Blues’ top scorer (7) at the start of the season. Yesterday his goal, the first in the selection, shows his technical finesse and his lethality in the last gesture. As for his association with Mbappé, I often say that two quality players speak the same language on the pitch. So yes, this duo can prove to be complementary. » We all can’t wait to see that.
