[Saba Sports News] According to Spanish media reports, a documentary about Luis Enrique is set to air on Spanish television. The documentary will tell the story of Enrique’s coaching career, and in a preview clip, it captures Enrique encouraging Kylian Mbappe to take NBA superstar Michael Jordan as a role model before last season’s Champions League quarter-final second leg. This occurred before Paris Saint-Germain lost the first leg at home 2-3. Enrique told Mbappe: “There is no doubt that you are an exceptional top player, but that is not enough; you should become a leader for the team and a role model for your teammates. I know you like Michael Jordan; he would elevate all his teammates and played very hard on defense.” After this conversation, Mbappe led Paris Saint-Germain to overturn the deficit away from home and eliminate Barcelona with an aggregate score of 6-4. It remains to be seen how Paris Saint-Germain fans feel about this.
