Kylian Mbappé is going through a difficult time. And if after a particularly complicated start to the season with Real Madrid, the Bondy player was hoping to get back on track with the French team, it was a failure. The former Parisian has in fact gone two more matches without scoring and, above all, he was targeted by Mike Maignan, who launched a resounding rant after the defeat against Italy (3-1).
As soon as the match was over, the French goalkeeper launched into a monologue in the Parc des Princes locker room to denounce the starlet’s behavior and there was no doubt that the Milan goalkeeper was targeting his captain in particular. In his wake, several Blues also spoke out to insist on the need to play as a team, especially in defense or when losing the ball.
Didier Deschamps justifies himself
Kylian Mbappé didn’t say a word, seeming elsewhere. Throughout the gathering, the Bondynois appeared distant, not very concerned. If we are to believe The Teamthe French captain nevertheless spoke out two days after the defeat against the Nazionale. Obviously not to make amends but to criticize the lack of tactical work carried out during the start of the gathering. It is difficult not to see this as a criticism aimed at Didier Deschamps and his staff.
The French coach also took care to respond to his captain and was able to take refuge behind the little time that the Blues’ management has to prepare for each match or on the need to rotate to spare the bodies. Above all, according to a source in the entourage of the French team, two specific sessions were “focused on work of this type”. Insufficient, however, in the eyes of the Madrilenian and several of his teammates.
