“What I can tell you is that Kylian Mbappé wanted to come. And secondly, it is not the extra-sporting problems which come into account from the moment the presumption of innocence exists. » These words are those of Didier Deschamps when justifying the new absence of Kylian Mbappé from the France team. For the second time in a row, the Real Madrid striker is not called up by his coach. And if the first time, it had been justified by the desire to let him recover from a slight injury, this time, the reasons seem more vague. Even after the coach’s attempts to explain.

This announcement logically caught the attention of the world press from England to Spain and Germany. And if Didier Deschamps wanted to explain that this choice was based solely on his decision, it seems that there are reasons for this new absence. This Thursday, RMC Sport explained that Deschamps had had a disagreement with Mbappé (the details of which are unknown) and that he also wanted to preserve his player who is in turmoil. But this is obviously not the only reason. Marca and the daily L’Team also agree that the affair in Sweden is also one of the reasons for this absence.

A risk of disrupting the group if there are new revelations

Contrary to what he explained at a press conference, Didier Deschamps would have been influenced by this affair. The coach of the Blues, who does not know the progress of the investigation, visibly feared that the Swedish justice system would summon the French striker in the middle of a rally. This would logically have caused an earthquake in the world of French football and would obviously have disrupted the group. DD therefore decided not to take any risks and focus solely on the athlete.

For now, the prosecutor says she has no new information to make public and we still do not know if the investigation has progressed. The Spanish press explains for its part that Swedish justice continues to investigate the case and does not rule out new information from the Swedish press on this subject in the coming days. This could therefore happen during the international break and logically disrupt the player, but also his teammates. We therefore understand better the choice of Didier Deschamps.
