Former French international Djibril Cissé thinks that Mbappé’s absence in the 8th leg against Bayern is not so dramatic for PSG.
In the knockout stages of the Champions League, which pits them against Bayern Munich (February 14), PSG will have to compose without their star Kylian Mbappé. Victim of a muscle injury, the Bondynois crack will be unavailable for a minimum of three weeks. It’s a huge blow for the champions of France. However, some believe that this defection is not insurmountable.
“Without Mbappé, we will have to limit the damage”
Djibril Cissé, the former striker of the France team, thinks Paris can do very well without their goleador. “In my mind, what is important is above all to qualify, he recalled during an intervention on the The team channel this Thursday. That the 1 is missinger game, it doesn’t matter. We must limit the breakage and that there is not too much difference in the score. Hopefully he will be back for the return match. I think it will be. There are advances in medicine. It’s going faster and faster to recover.”
The former Auxerrois then bid by claiming that the absence of Mbappé could free Neymar and bring him to surpass himself against the Bavarians. “We saw that Neymar liked to take responsibility when Mbappé is missing. He likes to put on the costume and do the work. I hope that he and Messi will be at the level of the Champions League, because opposite we will not give them a gift”.
As a reminder, during the previous double confrontation between Paris and Bayern in the Champions League (2-3, 1-0), it was Mbappé who had been the most decisive PSG player. At the ally, at the Allianz Arena, he had scored a double. All the people of Paris are crossing their fingers that it will be operational again on Bavarian soil, if not present at the Park.
