Back to school will not have been easy for Didier Deschamps. If the Blues have perfectly launched their qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup thanks to 2-0 success won in Poland against Ukraine, the tricolor coach is in turmoil following the injury of Ousmane Dembélé.
Entering the break at the break from Désiré Doué, the former Barcelona was released after only about thirty minutes of play due to pain in the hamstrings of the right leg and the medical verdict is heavy since the 2018 world champion is left for at least six weeks of absence. What cause the anger of PSG.
And the club of the capital is all the more reassembled since it had clearly warned the staff of the Blues of the precarious state of form of its star attacker, enjoining him to be careful. It was nothing and for Daniel Riolo, the fault is clearly incumbent on Didier Deschamps and his staff.

He can push to 33, 34, or even 36. In training (in the French team), they did not grow it beyond 29. A 29, at PSG, he does not play. With the French team, he played. »»
“When he trained (with the Blues), he never pushed, he added. At PSG, the physical trainer, with the GPS, receives the alert that says to him: 'You slow down, you do not push acceleration beyond'. At PSG, if he cannot go beyond, he does not play and there he played. »» And for the polemicist of RMC, the explanations of Didier Deschamps since the injury of his player also raised questions.
“When he says that there are staff who do not communicate or give information, (…) with regard to PSG, what he says is not true, he launched. Not only; PSG warned but he provided the medical file saying: for us, he must not play. Deschamps' words does not hold because PSG communication has been clear and clear. The words of Deschamps is wobbly. »»
