Four days before France's Euro opener, winds are blowing: RMC reports that Killian Ambape has refused to accept Olivier Giroud's apology, and that tensions between the two strikers continue.
Jiro who implicitly spoke out against Paris Saint-Germain star when he said after the win in the warm-up game against Bulgaria that he was not getting enough balls, tried to reconcile in training last night with Ambape, who personally took the Chelsea striker's quotes and even wanted to respond to them at the press conference. Do not do this.
According to reports in France, "Ambepa looked in a bad mood in training", and was not encouraged even when Giro approached him, tried to hug him and made it clear that he did not intend to criticize not only him but also players like Angulo Canta and Benjamin Favre. "Giro's reconciliation attempt did not help, and tensions still exist," the RMC noted.
At the same time, Karim Benzema (who also has an old conflict with Giro) is already imagining the collaboration between the tricolor's senior pioneers,Ambape and Antoine Griezmann.
"I look at the attacking players that are around me, and feel in a dream. On the one hand Ambape, on the other hand Griezmann. One likes to get deep dedication, the other likes to get the ball on foot. As the central striker, I try to learn them as much as possible," Benzema said.
"I know them very well, I know how they play, where they like to stand, where they are most dangerous. Near players like that, it's a lot easier to attack."
Chemistry problems even before the tournament starts?

Yesterday (Thursday) the team received a visit to the training camp of French President Emanuel Macron, who talked to the players and tried to encourage them ahead of the tournament.
The president then told exactly what he told the players.
"I told them - 'You have nothing to prove, you're all great players, but give it your all until the last minute.' I also made it clear to the players - the team is stronger than any individual. "
It is possible that the words about unity and fraternity were said by the president against the background of clashes in the team, and a lack of paragon between Killian Ambape and Olivier Giroud.

Macron also complimented national team midfielder Angulo Canta, saying he deserved to win the Golden Ball.
"Caneta is a great player, like Killian Ambape he is an example. He is an example of young people in France. When we see what season Canta had in his team, I hope he will win the Golden Ball and that he will play like that in Euros.
" He and Killian are also good people, with values of Brotherhood and hard work.
They are loyal to the groups they came from.
I think this is important for the country, because sport is always bigger than just sport. "
