Kylian Mbappé, the request is made

Targeted by critics for several days, Kylian Mbappé still has some support who ask to give him a little breathing room.

Since he played again with Real Madrid when Didier Deschamps had indicated that he was not selecting him so that he could recover from an injury contracted on September 24, Kylian Mbappé has been targeted by critics. However, captain of the French team, he was therefore not called up for the gathering which is currently taking place within the framework of the League of Nations, but he was especially seen having a good time near Stockholm ( Sweden), while the Blues faced Israel (1-4 victory) in Budapest (Hungary). Enough to provoke a redoubled criticism. Some, however, chose to defend the Bondynois.

Former French international (one selection), Frédéric Piquionne spoke on the subject on Friday. For the channel consultant The Teamthe attacks of which Kylian Mbappé is the target are not justified. “He’s not tired. This is the communication that was well intended. The coach gave him a few days, he went to Stockholm with his friend, private jet, well settled, he sleeps when he wants. It’s not very serious. » And the ex-OL and ASSE player added: “He’s someone who has no life. He has no life, Kylian Mbappé. The proof, as soon as it moves, we take a photo. Leave him alone for a little while! »

“He still has the right to go to a restaurant”

And when another speaker present on the set reminded him that Kylian Mbappé had the life he had chosen, Frédéric Piquionne still explained that he could also live it peacefully: “He still has the right to go to restaurants and go out clubbing with his friends. »

Regarding the injury, the consultant preferred to have fun with it, remembering his own career with a little smile: “We were players. Sometimes we said: ‘I have a little pain behind my thigh’, but in three days that’s it, the thigh no longer hurts. »

Would Kylian Mbappé be more victim than culprit in the episode currently taking place? The answer probably lies somewhere between the two. If it clearly appears that Real Madrid played their own part to ensure they kept their player to the detriment of the French team, this night outing of the Bondynois was not the most appropriate in this context.
