a first big trend for Mbappé and the captaincy?

Absent during the last two gatherings of the France team, Kylian Mbappé saw several players wear the armband in his absence, namely Aurélien Tchouaméni, N'Golo Kanté and Ibrahima Konaté. Last night, L'Equipe dropped a little bombshell by announcing that Didier Deschamps was going to speak with him to find out more about his desire to remain captain. If he wants to stay, then the national coach will let him. But otherwise, “DD” would already have ideas in mind to replace him in this task.

Mbappé on track to remain captain of the Blues?

Despite everything, RMC Sport reveals that it would be “very surprising” to see the Real Madrid striker renounce this status. Still very attached to the Blues, the top scorer in the history of PSG made it known through an Instagram story on Sunday evening where he showed his support for his teammates against Italy, Didier Deschamps, for his part, asked about this at a press conference: “Today, I am not going to ask myself a question that is not on the agenda. Everything in its time“. As a reminder, Kylian Mbappé succeeded Hugo Lloris as captain after the 2022 World Cup, where he notably shone in the final by scoring a hat-trick against Argentina.
