Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
The vagueness surrounds the situation of Kyllian Mbappé. For this November gathering, Didier Deschamps made the decision not to call up his captain for the next two Nations League matches. At a press conference this Thursday, the coach did not wish to elaborate on the subject, even though he was at the origin of this choice.
New episode in Kylian Mbappé's incredible soap opera French team. After the incredible sequence of October, during which the player was left to rest at Real Madrid, before playing a match against Villarreal, Didier Deschamps has decided, once again, to do without the services of his star. Except that this time, the French international is in good shape and does not, a priori, suffer from any injury. Obviously, the situation of Mbappé found herself at the heart of the coach's press conference this Thursday. But the technician remained quite vague.
Deschamps protects his player
« I discussed with him and I made this decision for this gathering because I think it's better like that, he decided. I'm not going to argue. I can tell you two things. The first is that Kylian (Mbappé) wanted to come. The second is that it is not extra-sporting problems that come into play since the presumption of innocence exists and must exist. It's a one-off decision. It's my decision because I think it's better that way. I don't want to tell you more, I take responsibility for this decision » confided the coach.
“Deschamps reminds us that he is the boss”
Behind the scenes were revealed by journalists and in particular by Giovanni Castaldi. According to him, the decision was taken by Didier Deschamps, eager to establish his authority over the group. “ In this sequence with Mbappé, we must understand that the coach wants to reach out to his player who he knows is in distress. We know that during the last two gatherings, Mbappé did not want to come. This sequence is disturbing for the coach and the France group. There was a little music that had been going around for several weeks according to which Mbappé decided everything in the France team. By making this decision, and it is really Deschamps who made this decision, he reminds us that he is the boss” he declared on the set of Greg's Team.
