A man in the shadows and right-hand man of Didier Deschamps since 2009, Guy Stéphan remains a fairly discreet person in the media. Although he limits his public appearances, the assistant coach has agreed to speak on several themes during this March gathering. After Franceinfo at the start of the week, it's from the media Kop Football that the 67-year-old man spoke this Friday. Necessarily invited to speak on the future of Kylian Mbappé and its consequences within the France group, Stéphan was categorical.
“If Kylian's future has an impact on the group? Nothing at all, no, no, insists Didier Deschamps’ deputy. What changes a little bit is that he plays less, but he plays enough to be in good shape, we saw it during the last match against Montpellier. Now it's his choice, he's been at PSG for 7 years, it's the life of a professional player. We don't change every year. Then where will he go? I don't know, I read and listen like everyone else. He will make the best choice and he is a very good captain for us.»
