Mbappé will speak

Kylian Mbappé will appear at a press conference on Friday. The captain of the France team will be alongside Didier Deschamps, on the eve of the Blues’ match against Gibraltar.

After having repeatedly assumed his responsibilities as captain of the France team by attending a pre-match press conference, Kylian Mbappé deserted the rooms full of journalists. Thus, the French striker had no longer appeared to answer questions from the press before the Blues’ meetings since June 15 and a meeting against… Gibraltar. In a way of closing the loop of silence, Mbappé will be back in front of journalists this Friday (5 p.m.), on the eve of the return match against the same Gibraltar team.

With a particularly eventful summer for Paris Saint-Germain following its refusal to activate its third optional year, Kylian Mbappé preferred to let other players from the France team present themselves during the various press conferences before -match, particularly during the September and October gatherings, to avoid having to answer questions about his personal future and parasitize the life of the French group.

Obviously expected

This Friday, the one who became captain of the Blues to the detriment of Antoine Griezmann, after the announcement of the international retirement of Hugo Lloris last January, will therefore have the opportunity to face the press who will undoubtedly have many questions to ask him. As a reminder, the match against Gibraltar, counting for the qualifying phase for Euro 2024, will be played on Saturday in Nice, from 8:45 p.m.
