Kylian Mbappé did not participate in the France team gathering during the month of October. An absence that has caused a lot of ink to flow. It all started on Thursday October 3 when Didier Deschamps did not select his captain. The French technician explained that his striker, injured with Real Madrid, was going to stay at the club to heal and recover physically. Except that two days later, the Bondynois played with the Merengues against Villarreal. Obviously, this caused a stir in France and abroad. On Monday, DD tried to put out the fire in a video published on YouTube by the FFF.
“Kylian crystallizes a lot of things about him. This is not making a case of Kylian. We need to see this more generally. (…) The initial postulate is that the interests of the clubs and the interests of the national teams, I am not just talking about the French team, necessarily diverge at some point, and we must not forget either that the employer is the club, it is not the federation.” But we have known the boss of the Blues to be sharper when defending his players and his ideas. In the process, several media, particularly in Spain, explained that he had given priority to Madrid.

Mbappé was in a discotheque during the Blues match
In France, his case continued to fuel debate. But whatever the case, the Blues had to do without him last night in Budapest against Israel during the Nations League. Despite everything, the former Paris Saint-Germain player, who spoke on the phone with Aurélien Tchouameni during the rally, had a thought and words for his teammates before kick-off. In fact, he shared on his social networks a photo of the Tricolores team composition with the message “good match“. All accompanied by a French flag emoji. So far, nothing too crazy.
But this morning, Aftonbladet releases size information on KM9. Indeed, the media reveals that while the Blues were playing against Israel (4-1 victory), Mbappé was in Sweden, in Stockholm more precisely. The Frenchman, who was however masked, had a good time there, he who was seen having dinner at the restaurant Chez Jolie before spending the evening at a disco. The very serious Swedish media Aftonbladet explains that he took a taxi which dropped the player off at the V nightclub. He then went to a private room later that night. Obviously, this nighttime outing when he is supposed to be resting to recover from his injury and during the France match, causes a lot of noise. But he was surely allowed to travel by Real Madrid. Despite everything, it leaves a stain, and the controversies continue for Mbappé…
