Luis Enrique slammed Kylian Mbappe in a technical meeting before his PSG departure, according to footage.

A picture surfaces of PSG manager Luis Enrique reprimanding Kylian Mbappe during a tactical session last season, as the Spaniard ridiculed the forward’s admiration for NBA icon Michael Jordan

Enrique, a former Barcelona and Spain manager, led Les Parisiens through a transitional time at the Parc des Princes in July 2023.

Lionel Messi and Neymar had left for Inter Miami and Al Hilal, respectively, and Christophe Galtier had been accused of harassment and discrimination.

Mbappe and his teammates left PSG under acrimonious circumstances.

A clip from a new Movistar documentary showed Mbappe and his partner having a stressful encounter during his final season in Ligue 1.

I read you liked Michael Jordan. Enrique tells Mbappe before their Champions League quarterfinal against Barcelona.

Michael Jordan would grab his teammates by the balls and defend madly. You must lead by example as a person and athlete.

If you press, you’ll have [Pau] Cubarsi. You’ll protect Cubarsi from Cubaris and ter Stegen.

You will press Cubarsi to stop him from advancing and Ter Stegen to play rapidly and return promptly throughout the match.

‘Why? To lead. You think you must score goals for us.

Despite the tension, Enrique praised the 25-year-old but said he needs to strive harder for his teammates.

He added: ‘You’re a phenomenal golfer. No doubt.

That’s not enough for me. A true leader helps us in everything that matters, even when you can’t help us with goals because you had two high-level players against you.

Mbappe must give his all to leave the club without regrets, said Enrique.

I want you to do that. Leading here. Your last two games. Please exit through the huge door. Without regrets.

But you must win. Not assaulting. You well. Your attacks are fierce. I know.

‘When you can’t, you must be the greatest defender ever. A leader. That’s Michael Jordan.

Enrique’s words of encouragement inspired Mbappe, who scored twice to record a 4-1 win over the Catalan club before Borussia Dortmund eliminated them in the semi-finals.
