Mathieu: I had bad time with Luis Enrique at Barcelona

Jeremy Mathieu has recalled working with PSG coach Luis Enrique at Barcelona.

The former France defender was asked about how Enrique would be relating with PSG‘s players.

He told Bein Sports: “We will say that our experience was a mix. He was the one who wanted me and we met secretly to agree on the signing. He is a coach who doesn’t talk to you much and doesn’t give you much confidence.

“I play a lot with confidence and, sometimes, I played important games and then I was on the bench. So, actually, he needed continuity. That’s what I didn’t understand. But he never explained to me why.

“Maybe he didn’t have time, I don’t know…”

Mathieu continued: “Maybe he works like that. No, I don’t know why, I think that’s how Luis Enrique works. That’s how he is. A problem in Paris? Maybe. Did he change his way of being and do things afterwards? I don’t know. It was like that for us at Barça and in the end I had a bad time.”
