This May 11, the newspaper L’Equipe published an article in which it is explained that Kylian Mbappé would have avoided a strike linked to Ramadan among the players of the France Espoirs team. The new captain of the Blues reacted to the brief on Twitter, and the latter did not mince his words.
Naturally sympathetic, Kylian Mbappé knows how to be sharp when he wants. On May 11, the captain of the Blues took to his Twitter account to react to an article by L’Equipe published the same day, in which the newspaper indicates that players from L’Équipe de France Espoirs tried to strike during the last gathering of the various selections, in March. The reason ? Les Bleuets would have liked to protest against the management of Ramadan, while the staff encouraged the players to postpone their fast. According to several media, including France Football and L’Équipe, Kylian Mbappé was then asked by his superiors to calm things down and dissuade young hopefuls from going on strike. A few hours after the publication of the article on the case, this Thursday, Kylian Mbappé reacted on Twitter.

Judging by his response, the new captain does not validate the information obtained by the press. “Avoid putting my name in your salads and check your sources please…Good evening“, he wrote, bluntly.
