Real Madrid won their sixth European Super Cup on Wednesday night after beating Atalanta (2-0), in a match in which the main attraction, Kylian Mbappé, made his debut in the white shirt, scoring a goal.An event that has not gone unnoticed in Paris and about which, in fact, PSG coach Luis Enrique was asked. The Asturian, true to his ironic style, was sarcastic and said he had not seen Madrid’s last match.Something that is undoubtedly shocking, because Luis Enrique was Mbappé’s coach during the previous season and, in addition, in the same press conference to which we referred, he declared himself a fan of the white ‘9’.However, several PSG players did watch the Merengues’ match against Atalanta. In fact, two of them in particular, Achraf and Marco Asensio, were very happy with Madrid’s victory, given their past there, and with the goal scored by their former teammate, and also friend, Mbappé.Luis Enrique and Nasser Al-Khelaifi have the ‘enemy’ at home with Achraf and Asensio, two Real Madrid players who play for PSG… and they don’t forget their past.Real Madrid’s victory in the European Super Cup, where they secured a 2-0 win over Atalanta, marked a significant moment as Kylian Mbappé made his debut for the club, scoring a goal. This event has not gone unnoticed, especially in Paris, where PSG’s coach Luis Enrique was ironically dismissive when asked about the match, claiming he hadn’t watched it. His response was surprising, considering he coached Mbappé the previous season and had earlier expressed admiration for the player.
Interestingly, some PSG players, particularly Achraf Hakimi and Marco Asensio, did watch the match. Both have strong ties to Real Madrid—Achraf as a former academy graduate and Asensio as a former player. Their excitement over Madrid’s victory and Mbappé’s goal underscores their lingering connection to their former club, hinting at a potential internal conflict at PSG. With Luis Enrique and PSG’s president Nasser Al-Khelaifi aware of these sentiments, it’s clear that some PSG players still hold their past with Real Madrid close, despite now wearing different colors.
