Holder of a Master's degree in sports journalism, I fell in love with tennis since childhood and have always loved reading the great stories of this sport. Today, I want to tell them about them, take full advantage of my passion and be as close as possible to the aces of the circuit.

Absent from the last gathering of the year 2024 of the French team, Kylian Mbappé was not called by Didier Deschamps. The coach is aware of the problems of his attacker, who has been struggling mentally for months. Always at the center of controversies at the slightest movement, the captain of the Blues has constant pressure on his shoulders. Fortunately, he can count on his teammates in the selection.

After an eventful end to the adventure PSG and an arrival at Real Madrid difficile, Kylian Mbappé going through a bad patch. At almost 26 years old, the striker is surely in the worst period of his career. Mentally exhausted by the demands and controversies around him, he certainly needs to take a breather at the moment. His absence in team is noticed of course but we are counting on him for a comeback.

Invited to speak about the absence of his captain in Téléfoot this Sunday, Ibrahima Konate wanted to send a message to Kylian Mbappé. “Does this affect me? On a personal level yes because Kylian, beyond being a footballer, is a friend of mine. She is a person that I am very fond of. So if he has psychological or personal problems in his life, we will always be there to help him with anything. But we also know the qualities that Kylian has, he is a fantastic player who is one of the best in the world” declares the central defender of Liverpool.

“I’m really not worried about him.”

Difficulty adapting correctly to the level of requirements of the Liga since the start of the season, Kylian Mbappé of course still has time to get back to his best level. “Every player in his career has had a little hollowness. I'm really not worried about him and when he comes back I can't wait for him to get back to his best. We always miss him, friendly or even on the pitch because he is a very great player. But today, he is not there and we have to make do with the strengths we have” continues Konate.
