"Liked my wife more than me": Jesé makes shocking claim about PSG president
In 2016, Real Madrid winger Jesé Rodríguez transferred to Paris Saint-Germain for €25 million. However, his time in the French capital was far from successful, and the player now attributes some of his struggles to PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi, accusing him of poor treatment.
Details: The former PSG winger claimed that during his stint with the club, Al-Khelaifi showed more favorable treatment toward Jesé’s wife than toward him.
Quote: "I debuted for PSG with a match-winning assist in my first game, but then I was sidelined for two months due to appendicitis. When winter came, I was told I needed to leave. I told Unai Emery I felt betrayed.
Al-Khelaifi didn’t want to see me. I don’t know, maybe he liked my wife more than me. They never gave any explanations. You could make a lot of money there, but the treatment was disheartening," Jesé said on the YouTube channel Mowlihawk.
Reminder: This summer, Jesé was released by Spanish Segunda club Eldense. He currently plays for Malaysian side Johor Darul Ta’zim.
