Still in such uncertain form, Kylian Mbappé could start on the bench against Belgium on Monday evening in the Nations League.

Stop or encore? While he is far from being the only player to disappoint, Kylian Mbappé once again delivered an insufficient performance against Italy (1-3) on Friday evening, in line with his last six months where the Bondy player is often a shadow of himself.

For Mbappé, mental saturation is mentioned. A physical problem, too, because his runs are less sharp. In both cases, the Real Madrid striker probably needs rest. And with this in mind, Didier Deschamps would consider leaving his captain on the bench at kick-off against Belgium on Monday, indicates L’Equipe.

Will Mbappé return?

Regardless, there is clearly a problem with Mbappé, and a concern expressed by Daniel Riolo. “I don’t know if he’ll come back. For me, it’s an unknown. I don’t know if he’ll score goals again. I don’t know what Pintus can achieve. Today, when we talk about Mbappé, we only talk about the Real Madrid fitness coach.”said the RMC consultant on Friday evening, who believes that Antonio Pintus holds “the future” by Mbappé.

“In an ideal world, observes for its part the X Espoirs du Football account, Mbappé should take a season off from football, take a year off to regenerate himself physically and mentally. It seems obvious that he is in a slump and that the repetition of matches since he was 17, the multiple demands, his various activities, have an impact on his performance.
