The return of Kylian Mbappé to the French team, after six months of absence, was not a shadow of a doubt. On the other hand, the question of whether or not he would recover the captain's armband could arise. Didier Deschamps decided:
The Real Madrid striker will keep this privilege.
In Téléfoot this Sunday morning, we learn that the tricolor coach and the former Paris Saint-Germain player had a discussion at the end of 2024. “We continued to exchange (during his absence), I continued to support him, that does not prevent the players from what I think. Contact is always very important to me. He knows what I expect from him on the field and outside ”said the Blues coach in the Sunday program.
Mbappé, the return in grace with the Blues?
And the 1998 world champion to continue: “Of course, if I take it back, it is not to please you, I always said that I considered that the French team would be stronger with it. His transfer to Madrid has led to many expectations, but despite everything, he continues to have very good statistics. The environment in Madrid, the players … This is not what he had at PSG ”.
On November 7, Didier Deschamps surprised everyone by revealing his list of players summoned to face Israel and Italy in the League of Nations. Kylian Mbappé was then not part of it.
