Kylian Mbappe is battling physical and psychological struggles at the moment, Didier Deschamps has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the Frenchman is definitely facing a difficult situation for both club and country right now, and it is not the happiest moment of his career for sure.
Deschamps added that Mbappe actually wanted to play for France during the current international break, but it was better for him to sit the games out.
His words, “It’s a fact that he is in a difficult situation. Obviously, he is going through a period which is not the happiest of his career.”
On sitting out more Nations League qualifiers, “He wanted to come. I think it’s better for him [not to be selected] at the moment. Everybody can go through a difficult period. There is a physical element, and a psychological one.”
WOW.
