Rudi Garcia hits out at Koeman
Lyon manager Rudi Garcia has hit out at Ronald Koeman after the Dutchman got annoyed over Messi’s transfer speculations to PSG.
Koeman had criticized Angel Di Maria for his comments on Messi moving to Barcelona, deeming it as disrespectful one.
Now, Lyon gaffer Garcia has taken a swipe at Koeman by pointing out the fact the Dutchman couldn’t stop talking about Barca’s target Memphis Depay for the last few months even after the transfer windows were closed.
“I read that Ronald Koeman was a little offended that PSG spoke about Lionel Messi at the club before a Champions League match.
“He was not shy, even after the transfer window, to talk about Memphis Depay.
“It is called the water sprinkler and the sprinkler has been sprinkled.”

“It’d be fantastic to have him with us – another gift that football would’ve given me.”
