At 33 years old and after 137 selections, Antoine Griezmann ended up saying stop to the France team. This Thursday, Didier Deschamps also returned to this unplanned event to ensure that he was still counting on his former vice-captain. But according to Jérôme Rothen, DD did indeed play an important role in the decision of the native of Mâcon.
“Kylian Mbappé no longer wanted to play on the right. He (Deschamps) told me in private: ‘Kylian, I can make him play on the right but he won’t defend as much as he did when he arrived. So I put him in a position where I can animate my midfield differently.” You give him a little pass to Mbappé. And who suffered all this? Antoine Griezmann! He wandered down the right side. Antoine doesn’t has more legs to play on the right side. You are not playing to his strengths.he confided on RMC Sport.
