The French coach, Didier Deschamps, was visibly annoyed with the question about the possible return of Karim Benzema to the team facing the World Cup final in Qatar against Argentina: “I’m not going to answer, next question”.

The Madrid striker had to leave the French camp in Qatar due to an injury a few days before the start of the competition, but he has already returned to training.

Deschamps decided not to summon anyone in his place, so FIFA clarified that, officially, it is part of the French list of 16 players and could return to concentration and play.

Of course, the French striker, FIFA Golden Boot who missed the World Cup p or an injury, has permission from Real Madrid if he wishes to travel to Qatar to witness the final of the Copa del World next Sunday between Argentina and France.

As reported by the Spanish sports newspaper AS, the final decision will be made by Benzema since Madrid will not raise any objections since the striker is still part of the French list of 26 soccer players qualified to play in the World Cup.

The one who did answer on the subject was Aurélien Tchouaméni, the Real Madrid midfielder, key player with Didier Deschamps since day 1 of the tournament, “I have spoken with Benzema, he told me that he is very happy for us”, was the answer when they asked him about his teammate at the White House.

For his part, the player, who before the semifinal had posted a message of support to his teammates, in recent days has only dedicated himself to giving “replies” on his social networks
