PARIS (Reuters) – Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe was not named in France’s squad to face Israel and Italy in Nations League games, coach Didier Deschamps said on Thursday.
Deschamps did not say whether Mbappe, who played with his club in the Champions League on Tuesday, was injured, arguing his choice was a “one-off decision” and that the player “wanted to come” and join the team.
