The Blues locker room angry, Mbappé “fired” from the France team

Kylian Mbappé was “fired” from the team by Didier Deschamps for this gathering in November, says Jean-Michel Larqué.

This is the big surprise of Didier Deschamps' latest list. As during the previous gathering last October, Kylian Mbappé was not selected by the French coach to face Israel (November 14) and Italy (November 17) in the Nations League.
“DD” did not give the details of his choice
only ensuring that the Madrilenian “ wanted to come “, but that he did not wish to summon him ” because it's better that way. »

For Jean-Michel Larqué, the reason for the absence of Kylian Mbappé is simple: Didier Deschamps has “ fired » after the controversy of the last rally, during which the former Parisian spent a few days in Stockholm to party while he was supposed to rest. As a reminder, the captain of the Blues is the target of an investigation for rape and sexual assault during his stay in Sweden.

“It’s a magnificent turnaround”

« Didier Deschamps simply and cleanly fired Mbappé from the France team », affirmed Larqué on the airwaves of RMC this Thursday, and added: “ He fired him. And he fired him, not by taking excuses or winding paths to explain. He fired him by sending back to Mbappé what Mbappé had put forward during his last package. He said 'I don't want to come to protect myself'. Well my little Mbappé, there, for the gathering, you are not going to come because you are going to rest and protect yourself. It’s a magnificent turnaround. »

For his part, Jérôme Rothen assures that this choice of Didier Deschamps will create discord in the Blues locker room. “ Within the group, the fact that it was Didier who made this decision not to call Kylian Mbappé, that will leave its mark, assured the ex-Parisian. How can you explain to your group that your leader, your captain, didn't come because you had to protect him? And that in March he will represent the group? No, that's impossible. This will not be accepted in the locker room. We've been there. This will not be accepted. » A new international window which promises to be eventful in Clairefontaine.
