Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, with a Master's degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.
For the second time in a row, Kylian Mbappé was absent from Didier Deschamps' list for reasons which remain quite obscure. However, according to Jérôme Rothen, the Bondynois has clearly decided to concentrate on Real Madrid, thus leaving the French team aside. At least for now.
The case Mbappé continues to feed the column. And for good reason, the attacker Real Madrid is once again absent from the list of Didier Deschampswhich never fails to get people talking. Besides, Jerome Rothen even believes that the former number 7 of PSG clearly favors the Real Madrid to the French team.
“Now they are almost as focused as on Real Madrid and less on the French team”
« If Deschamps regained power by not taking back Mbappé? Yes, today, but be careful. I'm telling you today, because there's a rally coming up, there's two games coming up, then there's the holidays, the start of the year and the reunion in March. I may have another speech in March, because we will have to deal with everything that this decision will leave behind. The proof is that we are starting to hear a little bit about the Mbappé clan, saying that he was not happy, that he was surprised, and that now they are even as focused as on the Real Madrid and less on the France team, so that means that there can be a reflection because there you really poked him in his ego, which is oversized », notes the former player of the PSG at the microphone of RMC before continuing.
“I do not at all condone such a reaction”
« We know that and I don't blame him for that. But I don't condone such a reaction at all. In March he will be in better shape, because I don't see how it can be worse. At this weekend's game, the attitude he has, frankly, he's completely elsewhere. He's more of a football player. If you call him back, there will be discussions. Basically, he's his captain, and he didn't say that he would definitely return in March. If in March you come and explain to us that Kylian Mbappé is better with Real Madrid and that he deserves to come back and we act as if nothing had happened, that is to say that he is coming back to the French team with the captain's armband and everything, I say “no” to you. That would mean that what I think today, I will think more », added Jerome Rothen.
