    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    A day after the attacker's official announcement, Les Parisiens manager Luis Enrique opened up about the star player's exit. He spoke highly of the France international while calling him a club legend, although the fans remain divided on the player's contribution to the club.

  • WHAT LUIS ENRIQUE SAID

    Speaking to reporters about the star attacker's transfer, Luis Enrique said: "He's wonderful as a player and as a person. He's a club legend, he's had seven years so I understand that. As far as Kylian is concerned, these are things that we knew already for a long time and everyone knew it was made public yesterday but that doesn't change anything."

    The manager also revealed the kind of relationship he shares with the Los Blancos-bound player as he added: "Despite the fact that they wanted to oppose us and despite Kylian’s denials, I can tell you that he is wonderful as a player and as a person. There is still one title to compete for (French Cup final against Lyon) and that is our objective. Then I am convinced that we will be stronger next season regardless of the players who will be present or not."
