The reported disagreement between Kylian Mbappe and France coach Didier Deschamps has reached a boiling point, with the star forward reportedly refusing to play for the national team under current circumstances.
According to journalist Romain Molina, Mbappe’s exclusion from the squad for two consecutive matches caused the rift. Deschamps claimed Mbappe wanted to join the team, but the player himself allegedly declined.
Deschamps defended his decision in a recent press conference, insisting it was the right call.
However, it remains to be seen how this stance will impact the team’s performance and Mbappé’s future involvement.
Those close to Mbappé, including his mother and agent Faïza Lamari, have publicly criticized Deschamps.
The strained relationship has cast uncertainty over Mbappé’s participation in future international matches.
Mbappe’s boycott leaves France without its talismanic captain and striker.
The situation will be closely watched, as the French national team prepares for upcoming challenges without its most influential player.
