After his departure from Paris Saint-Germain, Leonardo expressed some regrets about this elimination against Real Madrid in the Champions League. For the former sports director of PSG, several elements explain this news reassembled.
It’s time to take stock for Leonardo. The former sports director of Paris Saint-Germain was thanked in the shadows by his management. This departure left a bitter aftertaste for the Brazilian leader who does not want to dwell too much on the subject. Thus, he delivered much more on the elimination against Real Madrid in the Champions League. For him, this tragedy at the Bernabeu confused the judgment on his work.
At the microphone of The Team, he presents several conclusions to this problem. “At the break against Real, we don’t say anything to each other because we know football. We are confident, yes, as Chelsea were in the quarter-finals or Manchester City in the semi-finals. I think that this remontada is linked to two elements. Today, you have so many things around football, so many things in your head, that it’s not easy to stay focused for more than ninety minutes.
Players mean a lot of things, there’s a business behind it, big stakes. When I was a player, the context was less heavy, today it is difficult. The second element is new uses. It’s not possible to pass the ball in front of your goal all the time without risk. And when you concede a goal like that, you continue… If we had gone against Real, we wouldn’t be talking about recruitment. We were favorites in Champions…”, chanted Leonardo.
A logical analysis since the season ended again very early in the year. The Capital team had a big lead in Ligue 1, was eliminated in the Coupe de France and then in C1. The summer transfer window seems to have been judged solely on this terrible return to Madrid. Much to Leonardo’s chagrin.
