Barcelona defender Kounde took to social media to deny reports he attended a Travis Scott concert and its after party in the wake of the 4-3 victory over Real Madrid in El Clasico. The France international is currently out of action with a hamstring problem and missed the game, but he didn't take kindly to Mundo Deportivo's claim he had been partying to celebrate the result.

Kounde has enjoyed a fine season at right-back for Barcelona as Hansi Flick's side look to win the La Liga title. Victory on Thursday night against local rivals Espanyol would do the trick and Kounde does not seem keen to have his name dragged through the mud by the press ahead of their imminent celebrations.
WHAT KOUNDE SAID
Writing on X, Kounde said: "Another lie…I wasn't anywhere close to this place. This is not journalism. Do better."
DID YOU KNOW?
Mundo Deportivo aren't the only publication to be rebuked by Kounde in recent days. Catalunya Radio had claimed the 26-year-old was seen questioning the introduction of Robert Lewandowski during the recent Champions League tie at San Siro, but Kounde insisted the reports were little more than "tall tales" and "not journalism".
