Philippe Diallo, president of the French Football Federation (FFF), reaffirms his desire to see Kylian Mbappé return to the French team next March after missing the last two gatherings.
Philippe Diallo assures him, there is no problem with Kylian Mbappé. Guest on La Chaine L'Equipe on Wednesday, the president of the French Football Federation (FFF) returned to the case of the captain of the Blues absent from the last two gatherings. He explains that he has not interacted directly with him since the Euro, leaving Didier Deschamps to ensure the links.
“He is in a delicate period sportingly”
“I spoke with him during the Euros, then he left,” he explained. “Then there were many contacts. I know that Didier (Deschamps) went to meet him in Madrid, there were a lot of exchanges with him. It seemed natural to me to let the coach speak with the player . Who reported to me on the discussions he had until the decision he took for the last meeting.”
Absent in October due to injury… before playing two days after the announcement of the list with Real Madrid, Mbappé was not selected in November by Deschamps' choice. But “there is no problem,” promises Diallo. “I am the president of the Federation, I am not the coach. He explained his choice at the time of the list.”
Philppe Diallo was relaunched on the real reasons for Mbappé's absence in November, a month after the controversy over his real/fake injury with Real and then his trip to Stockholm, which resulted in an accusation of sexual assault.
“You perhaps have more information than me on the consequences because there is a form of presumption of innocence, I will not go any further in this area”, he swept away before confirming his strong desire to see his star in the selection in March. “Today, he is in a delicate sporting period. When he is the best player in the world, he is an irreplaceable asset for the French team. My only wish is that he becomes what he is again. is and that he joins us in March at the next gathering to bring us everything he has already brought to the France team.”
