Jules Kounde has been talking Barcelona legends and been quizzed on the one player he would have loved to have played with at Camp Nou.
The French defender currently plays alongside superstars such as Pedri and Lamine Yamal with Hansi Flick’s side and named a compatriot when it came to a past player.
“I’d choose Thierry Henry. I really like his mentality, his quality,” he told a Q&A with the club’s media on Wednesday.
“He was a very fast player and very good with the ball; he could also play in midfield.
He was a very complete player.”
Kounde was also asked about the toughest players he’s faced during his career and came up with two names.
“[Vinicius] is the player who has given me the most problems,” he added. “He’s a great player, very fast and constantly changing direction. I also had a very bad time with Rafael Leao.”
Kounde will come up against Vinicius again on Sunday when Barcelona face Real Madrid in El Clasico at Camp Nou.
