While the French team is preparing to challenge Croatia for the quarter -final return from the League of Nations, a first announcement has just fallen. Indeed, Aurélien Tchouameni will replace Kylian Mbappé during the traditional pre-match press conference. Three days after having accompanied the coach of the Blues, Mbappé will not appear in front of the press at the Stade de France, this Saturday at 5 p.m.
The Captain of the Blues will be replaced in this exercise by one of the vice-capital, namely his Tchouaméni teammate. An absence that inevitably risks being talked about … As a reminder, France, overthrown (0-2) in Split, will have to achieve a feat to validate its ticket for the Final Four of the competition, organized next June.
