Barcelona defender Jules Kounde has taken to social media to set the record straight about a comment he was alleged to have made during the team’s Champions League clash with Inter.
Kounde jetted in to Milan for the game and it was reported by Catalunya Radio he made a curious comment after seeing Robert Lewandowski feature as a substitute.
The Frenchman is alleged to have said: “I don’t know why Lewandowski is playing, he shouldn’t be playing in this condition.”
The report seemed a bit unlikely at the time, and it’s no surprise to see Kounde move quickly to set the record straight.
