Despite not being called up by the French National Team, the name of Kylian Mbappé continues to generate news around the French team. This Sunday statements came to light that suggest that the French captain is going through a “complicated” personal situation.

French coach Didier Deschamps, who left the Real Madrid star out of the squad for the second consecutive time, assured that the player goes through “a complicated, more difficult situation” Therefore, he has not been able to be present with the French team.

The absence of the 25-year-old forward has drawn attention taking into account that he does not present physical problems since he has continued training with the merengue club in these days of break for the double FIFA date, leaving open the possibility that his absence is a product of another situation.

However, the French strategist also assured that he is confident that Kylian Mbappé will soon be able to recover his level with Real Madrid and will be back in the French team where, in addition to being the captain, he is the biggest star.

“He has everything to do again what he has already done. “He will return to his best level, rethinking his tactical position”Deschamps highlighted in an interview with TF1 in which he suggests that the decline in his game could be due to his new position at Real Madrid, far from the left wing where he shone at PSG.

France comes from achieving a goalless draw against Israel last Thursday and this Tuesday they will face Italy in the closing of Group 2 of League A of the UEFA Nations League seeking to equal the top of the classification with the Italians who have 13 points, three more than the Gauls.

But Didier Deschamps’ words were not the only ones that generated uncertainty around the current situation that Kylian Mbappé is going through. His teammate on the French team, Ibrahima Konaté, also spoke out, showing that the star could face a difficult moment on a personal level.

“If Kylian has psychological or personal problems in his daily life, we will always be there to help him”commented the French Liverpool defender to Telefoot, which set off alarms in relation to the current situation of the Real Madrid star.

Since his arrival at the Madrid team, Kylian Mbappé has not been able to complete his adaptation to his new club by moving to occupy a different position, more at the top of the attack and not so much on the left wing where the Brazilian Vinícius Jr. is. 9′ has not produced the expected number of goals.

In 11 games played in the Spanish championship, Mbappé has scored six goals, two less than the Brazilian who has played only one more game than the Frenchman.
