While he could have gotten a spot in Mauricio Pochettino's rotation at PSG this season, Arnaud Kalimuendo has finally returned to RC Lens. Is it because of Lionel Messi? The current Lensois has given his version of the facts.
Last season, Arnaud Kalimuendo shone with the RC Lens . Loaned by PSG in northern France, the striker seized his chance perfectly to show his full potential. And that even convinced the club in the capital to take out the checkbook to repatriate it to Paris . While we thought that Kalimuendo could have had his chance this season with Mauricio Pochettino , the arrival of Lionel Messi somewhat blocked the offensive sector and finally, the 19-year-old has returned on loan to Lens .
“It didn't play”
This Saturday, Arnaud Kalimuendo spoke to L'Equipe and discussing his new start for the RC Lens , the player under contract with PSG explained himself on any link with the arrival of Lionel Messi . Did the Argentine cause Kalimuendo to leave? “It didn't play out. I was wondering long before he arrived. It was really the Reims match that started it all: I told myself that I was not going to play and that I had to leave. A youngster must play and have a series of matches, ”assured the Franck Haise player.
