Although he did not fail to proclaim his attachment to the France team, Kylian Mbappé did not, however, seem excited by the role of captain. “ I don’t have the same armband as Hugo. I get asked a lot of things. It’s a responsibility. I am asked for another job compared to Hugo, he confided. I was there, I could see clearly. »
The words of the former Parisian obviously did not go unnoticed. And according to Philippe Diallo, the recently re-elected president of the French Football Federation, it would be fashionable for Didier Deschamps to have a discussion with his captain, even saying he was ready to intervene. “It is necessary that there be a new exchange between him and Didier Deschamps. If necessary, I will come with them to complete their discussions,”
he suggested. But this prospect should hardly excite the former midfielder.
Didier Deschamps ready to appoint a new captain?
On the contrary, according to Gilles Verdez, the idea should anger the French coach. “Didier Deschamps will be furious because we don’t see why the president of the FFF would come into this discussion,” confided the former sports journalist on the TPMP set, adding that the French technician would undoubtedly want to give the armband to another player.
“And Deschamps is going to discuss very seriously with Mbappé because we still have the impression that he no longer wants the captain’s armband. That he is captain out of duty and not out of passion, explained the former Le Parisien. And then removing the armband would allow him to relieve himself of certain responsibilities. This is a new controversy that Mbappé would have done without, but it is very real. »
