Present on the Canal Football Club set, Bertrand Latour was not kind to the coach of the France team.
A month after a sluggish return to school, the success acquired against Belgium not being enough to make us forget the ugly defeat conceded against Italy, the Blues are expected at Clairefontaine this Monday in order to prepare for the two meetings on the program against Israel and the Red Devils. And targeted in September because of the performances of his troops, Didier Deschamps is already out of a new controversy.
But this time, the coach of the France team is only indirectly targeted. The controversy concerns its captain, Kylian Mbappé. The former Parisian will be notably absent from the gathering. Blame it on his recent thigh injury. However, the Bondynois, after coming on for the last half hour against Lille, started on Sunday against Villarreal. And if he didn’t shine, he nonetheless played 71 minutes, not seeming to feel any discomfort in his thigh.
Bertrand Latour shocked
This situation obviously raises questions and Didier Deschamps inevitably comes out affected. “Didier Deschamps is the cuckold of history, he said on Sunday on the Canal Football Club set. Sorry to say it like that. He arrives at a press conference and tells us ‘Kylian is not well, he is injured.’ And three days later, he plays 70 minutes. There, he will have to answer questions on Monday at Clairefontaine: ‘So Didier, why isn’t he there?’ He puts everyone in the sauce. I don’t understand what he’s playing. »
And the former journalist from L’Equipe also went on to highlight the disenchantment suffered by Kylian Mbappé in recent months. “What is he doing?” In December 2022, he scores a hat-trick in the World Cup final, he could have been elected president, he recalled. This week, I was in Lille, I was shocked, he was whistled when he came on and every time he took the ball. What happened? »
