France coach, Didier Deschamps has come out to play down rumors of a split between himself and Kylian Mbappe. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the recent reports of Mbappe going to a nightclub after being dropped from the French club is none of his business, because he does not follow the news of players who are not in camp.
Deschamps added that Kylian is currently following a programme with Real Madrid, not the French national team.
His words, “I don’t follow the news of players who are not here, Kylian is following a programme with Real Madrid, I don’t know if he was away or not. Like any player for his club, he follows a programme. If players have days off, they are free to do what they want.”
WOW.
