Considered one of the big favorites in this tournament, the France team will make its debut on Monday June 17 against Austria.
Eliminated prematurely during the last Euro in 2021 at the round of 16 stage, Kylian Mbappé’s partners want to rectify the situation and achieve a great European Nations Championship. Promoted to captain of the national team since the retirement of Hugo Lloris, Kylian Mbappé displayed his big ambitions in an interview with Sport Bild.
The French striker wants to make history. “It’s the first normal Euro for me. In 2021, the tournament was held in many countries, the feeling was different. That’s why I can’t wait for it to start. I of course want to leave my mark on the pitch during the Euro. We come to Germany to make history. It’s our job. We are ready, we are hungry for success and we know what we have to do,”
he blurted. The message is clear.
Holder at the forefront of the Blues attack?
Kylian Mbappé will obviously be the main offensive weapon of the France team during this Euro 2024. But the question is where he will be aligned on the pitch? To the left or to the point? According to the latest reports, the tendency would be to see him in the axis.
Indeed, his physical condition also questions Didier Deschamps who could position him in the axis in order to relieve him of certain defensive tasks. A positioning which should push Marcus Thuram onto the left side of the French attack. More details should come in the coming days…
