Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, a graduate of a Master’s degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.
It is therefore recorded, Kylian Mbappé was preferred to Antoine Griezmann to take the captain’s armband of the France team. A choice which has been widely commented on in recent days and which would have particularly affected the Atlético de Madrid player. Nevertheless, for Daniel Riolo, there is no possible doubt that the coach made the right choice.
After the international retirement ofHugo Lloris, Didier Deschamps had to decide to appoint a new captain. And while Kylian Mbappe et Antoine Griezmann seemed in competition, it is indeed the striker of the PSG who inherited the armband in the France team. A perfectly logical choice according to Daniel Riolo.
Mbappé captain, Riolo valid
« His first press conference today confirmed to me that this is a good choice. I am very happy. (…) Some say he’s going to burn himself out because he wants to do so many things. But for now, it does not burn “, assures the editorialist of RMC at the microphone ofAfter Foot before continuing.
“He deserves all the honors”
« So far, what it does, it does well. He has a crazy aplomb. He’s amazing, that’s all. At some point, it has to be said. (…) Mbappé is above average. He is smarter, stronger on the pitch. I have no problem with that. He deserves all the honors », added Daniel Riolo.
