Superstar Kylian Mbappe has not been named in the French national team’s squad for the Nations League matches during the upcoming FIFA Days in October.

Coach Didier Deschamps officially announced the list of 23 players who will be part of the French national team for the next matches in the UEFA Nations League during the FIFA Days in October. The most notable absence from the above list is Kylian Mbappe, the captain and number one hope of Les Bleus.

The 26-year-old superstar only had his first minutes back from injury in Los Blancos’ recent defeat to Lille in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League. Despite being able to play, coach Deschamps decided to keep Mbappe in Madrid to give him more time to recover.

Explaining his decision not to call up his star player, Deschamps told reporters: “I spoke to Kylian, he has a problem that is not serious but needs care to fully recover. I am not here to take risks.”

In addition to Mbappe, Deschamps has also decided not to call up two of the team’s pillars recently, the midfield duo N’Golo Kante and Adrien Rabiot. Meanwhile, Antoine Griezmann, the conductor of the French team’s play, has also previously announced his retirement from international football after 137 appearances. It is worth noting that the last time the French team did not have Mbappe or Griezmann in the squad was in November 2013, when Les Bleus defeated Ukraine 3-0 to qualify for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. At that time, Mbappe was only 14 years old.

Mbappe’s absence will also be an opportunity for other stars to show themselves such as Christopher Nkunku, Michael Olise and Bradley Barcola. These are stars who are in stable form at their teams and it is not surprising if they will replace their seniors to complete the task well.
