This is the debate that stirred up the disclosure of Didier Deschamps’ list less than a week ago. The assumed absence of Kylian Mbappé has given rise to numerous interpretations and we should not count on the national coach to say more.
At a press conference the day before the match, Didier Deschamps refused to mention the Mbappé case. “I told you what I told you, you are free to interpret. I will not repeat. I have a match tomorrow, I have 23 players, Kylian is not here, leave him alone”he said.
