After the disagreements at the Olympic Games, Real Madrid and the French national team are once again annoying each other. Didier Deschamps announced today (Thursday) the Tricolor’s squad for the upcoming games in the Nations League, but the real story is that the coach ignored the Blancos’ request.
Michael Olisa was called up for his debut alongside Manu Kona for the matches against Italy and Belgium, when according to ‘RMC’, the French Federation did not listen to Real Madrid’s request not to call up Kylian Mbappe, Perlan Mendy and Orlian Tshoumani, as the Blancos wanted the three to rest.
In the German national team, for example, they responded to the request of the European champions and did not call up the stopper Antonio Rudiger so that he could rest in the upcoming break. In the Olympic games in the summer, when the power was with Real, she refused to release Mbappe to Thierry Henry’s squad, in what might have cost the Tricolor in relegation.
As for Olisa making his debut, the player acquired by Bayern Munich has been on Deschamps’ radar for some time, although he was not called up for the last Euros, when he made a very big leap in his level.
