Mbappé on 60-Game Football Season | Concerns & Debate

essential
Present at a press conference this Thursday, September 4, the captain of the Blues Kylian Mbappé spoke of the controversial issue of the number of games played before the first match of the French team on September 5, against Ukraine without a wooden game.

“I don’t know if we can really be ready to play a 60 -game season.” It was with these words that Kylian Mbappé began his answer on the issue of the number of games played each season with members of the biggest clubs in the world. Present at a press conference before the match this Thursday, September 4, he continued his reflection: “Being physically ready, yes, but in terms of level is not possible (to play 60 high -level games, editor’s note).” He also underlines the heresy of seeing “teams making friendly matches while (Real Madrid, editor’s note) had not yet finished the season”.

Despite this observation, Mbappé nevertheless explains that he no longer thinks that footballers play too much as he believed in the past. For him the solution goes through “more rest during the holidays, to regenerate the body and try to come back.” The captain of the French team also believes that the debate is posed in poor terms. “” You make a lot of money, so play ”. If we stop there, the debate will never end,” said Mbappé. It seems to consider that the central point is to put an issue in all of the meetings played to prevent players from having “want to play certain matches”. “Everyone has to go a long way, because in the end, everyone is going to be a winner, people will see better quality matches,” he finally concluded.
