Kylian Mbappé discussed many subjects in his interview with L’Equipe. He obviously did not avoid the French team, and in particular the question of the captain’s armband, which he wore during the last years of Didier Deschamps.
“It’s difficult just to be captain, so captain of the France team, it’s very difficult, confides the Bondynois. But it’s a great experience. It allowed me to evolve as an individual in a group. In selection, I have always been the guy we watch. Captain, you’re the one who has to look at the others. It’s a lot of energy but also a lot of fun. I try to do it as best as possible. »
Zidane and Mbappé have not yet seen each other
Kylian Mbappé should continue this mission under the mandate of Zinédine Zidane, even if the new coach of the Blues has not yet officially confirmed the information. The two men have not yet spoken on this subject, because they have not spoken at all since “ZZ” took office, despite the fact that they both live near Madrid.
“No, we haven’t crossed paths. Out of respect for the coach, Didier Deschamps, and I think he too had his things to do. But we will have plenty of time”promises Mbappé.
We know that Zidane appreciates Mbappé, and that Mbappé is full of praise for Zidane. The top scorer in the history of the Blues has also given a layer of it:
“Zidane, it’s Zidane. For the French, it represents a lot. It’s the legend, it’s national Zizou. It’s elegance, grandeur. He made the history of the selection as a player. He has some very iconic moments. He is the player who perhaps most represents the France team. He is one of the players who has spanned generations. He left his indelible mark on the history of French football. »
