The Brazilian 'wetted' on the 'case Mbappé' ensuring that the panorama is complicated, besides took advantage of the occasion to defend to Lionel Messi and Sergio Bouquets, that have kept in the palestra by little effectiveness in the case of the Argentinian star and by the constant relapses of the Spanish.

When being questioned on the ex captain of the Real Madrid, Leonardo recognised that "we did not expect to follow four or five months without Bouquets. We knew that it dragged injuries of the past season and that we had to manage them. It is true that there have been surprises. There were some tensions, force us to prepare us and afterwards retreated".

However, the Brazilian cleared that "today it is really on the way correct. In terms of presence, mentality, personality would be really important to have it with us in the second half of the season". A statement that means a true break for the public opinion that no for to ask on the state of the legendary defender.

Surrendered in front of Messi

If you look the numbers of Messi, his six first months are incredible. He and Mbappé have participated in almost all the goals of the club. It is decisive. We do not carry to Messi to lucirse in each party. With him we are more competitive. It can decide in each party.

"Who said that it had to run 12 kilometres by party? It carries 20 years playing of the same way. The thing changes when have to other players to his side. But it is adaptable because it is a genius and the others genii have to adapt to him. But it is here, it happened 20 years in the same place and brought it to the three days. Three days! It was entirely unexpected for him. Those that think that walks are those that look for problems. Even Idrissa Gueye, that runs 15 kilometres by party, walks in the field".

Like this then , the leader of the PSG keeps his position in defence of his stars in front of any apex of indictment, which has generated in big quantities during the last months, especially with Messi like focus. His short mark goleadora has done him white of criticisms, although it has showed an important growth in the last parties.
