On his Youtube channel, French journalist Romain Molina made revelations this Friday on the absence from the French team of Kylian Mbappé, not selected by Didier Deschamps for the Nations League matches against Israel and against Italy next week . “Kylian Mbappé did not want to come to this gathering, and we are even going to go further, he currently does not want to return to the France team,” he confides straight away. “Why doesn’t he want to come?” Because he and his mother, cut off from the world, believe that there is a plot against them, that they are blamed. In particular the French press which would be responsible for the public’s disenchantment with him. There would be a certain disgust on his side. »
“This disgust,” he continues. “It had already existed after the Euro, where it was the target of a lot of criticism. He had already thought about leaving. There, it reached a point of no return. He has been criticized so much that he no longer wants to come. This is no longer possible for him. »
“I can’t tell you more”
When unveiling his selection this Thursday, Didier Deschamps was stingy with explanations about the absence of the Real Madrid striker, to avoid “interpretations”. “Because I think it’s better like that,” said the Blues coach, ensuring that his decision concerning Mbappé was not linked to “extra-sporting problems”.
“I understand that that is not enough for you,” he added to the media, who multiplied the questions on the subject without forcing the boss of the Blues to bend.
“I don’t want to get into an argument that leads to interpretations. I can’t tell you more,” insisted the technician, specifying that this absence only concerns the next two League of Nations matches against Israel, on November 14 at the Stade de France, and against Italy on the 17 in Milan. .
“I’m not going to argue,” he continued. “I can tell you two things: One, that he wanted to come, and two, that extra-sporting problems do not come into play. There is a presumption of innocence.
“DD” alludes to the revelations in the Swedish press on the opening of a rape investigation which, according to the dailies Aftonbladet and Expressen, would target the attacker after a trip to Stockholm during Israel-France (1-4).
