France have announced their Nations League squad without captain Kylian Mbappe once again. The French will face Israel and Italy in two matches. The Real Madrid star has been left out of the announced squad.
For the second time, the captain did not have a place in the declared team. He also missed the double header against Israel, Belgium in October. However, he was rested to give him time to recover from the injury. But then his being out gave rise to controversy. Because he returned to the field for Real after one day. And that was before the France match.
Mbappe has been criticized for his form since joining Real. And the decision to exclude him is the French coach Didier Desmare. He said, 'I have spoken with him. But I have taken this decision for a few matches. He wanted to come.'
As a result, France is not getting a captain for four consecutive matches.
