Kylian Mbappé steps up to the plate.
Barely hours after the intervention, widely decried on social networks, by Noël Le Graët on the antenna of RMC Sport, the Paris Saint-Germain striker defended his elder at the Blues.
“Zidane is France, we don't disrespect the legend like that…”, he wrote this Sunday evening on his Twitter account.
Zidane is France, we don't disrespect the legend like that... 🤦🏽♂️

Guest of the program "Bartoli Time", hosted by former tennis player Marion Bartoli, Noël Le Graët had indeed been questioned on the fate of Zinédine Zidane, the rumors sending him to Brazil or even on possible discussions. that he could have had with the former star of the Blues.
But the president of the French Football Federation quickly dropped: “I have nothing to shake, he can go where he wants.
He can go where he wants in a club in Europe, he would have as many as he wants.
A selection, I can hardly believe it”.
He assured not to have contacted or tried to contact the 1998 world champion. “Certainly not.
I would not even have taken him on the phone, assumes the president of the federation.
To tell him what?
Good morning sir.
Don't worry, look for another club, I'll agree with Didier.
[He addresses the presenters of the show]
You are very Zidane, make him a special show”.
Words which were therefore obviously not to the taste of number 10 of the Blues.
