France head coach, Didier Deschamps has opened up on the reason why Kylian Mbappe won’t feature in the 2024 Nations League squad.
The Real Madrid star, Kylian Mbappe name was omitted from the France squad list, as he was declared unfit after been seen in Madrid’s games against Lille and Villarreal.
As Nations released their squad lists ahead of Euros 2024, France’s Head coach, Didier Deschamps in a recent interview insisted that it was entirely his decision to leave Mbappe out of the squad ahead of the clash against Israel.
He had said: “Mbappe was not fit against Villarreal. There was no request. The decision is mine. He played the Villarreal game without being 100 per cent fit.”
Kylian Mbappe has continued to struggle with match fitness following the knock he picked up before his last two fixtures for Real Madrid before the international break.
