Kylian Mbappé's little dig at the French

World champion in 2018 and vice-world champion in 2022, France intends to honor its status this summer during the 2026 World Cup. On France-Info, Philippe Diallo, the president of the French Football Federation, was clear when he mentioned the Blues’ objective: “the last square at least”. He is therefore aiming for at least the 1/2 finals.

“France is today ranked number 1 in the FIFA rankings, that is to say the first team in the world. So we can’t hide, the France team has a lot of qualities, a lot of talent, a coach who has a lot of experience. So obviously, we are going there to achieve an important result. It’s still football, so you need a form of humility because in a tournament which will last until July 19, a lot can happen.concluded the boss of the FFF. DD and his men are warned.
