Official: France Boss Confirms Big Mbappe Decision

Kylian Mbappe has been left out of France's latest squad.

France manager Didier Deschamps has confirmed his latest big decision regarding captain Kylian Mbappe. 

Check Out: Mbappe 'Fed Up' At Real Madrid

The Frenchman spoke to members of the media on Thursday, confirming his decision to leave the Real Madrid forward out of his latest team. 

Mbappe, 25, was not called up for the most recent international break as Deschamps explained the ex-Paris Saint-Germain needed time to settle in Spain. 

This time around, however, Deschamps did not go into detail as to why the Los Blancos No. 9 has been overlooked. 

"I had discussions with Kylian and made my decision. It's better this way," he said, according to Fabrizio Romano. 

"Mbappe wanted to come with us, it's not because of any other problem."

The former Ligue 1 superstar has endured a difficult time since joining the 15-time UEFA Champions League winners, despite scoring eight goals in his first 15 appearances.

Reports suggest Mbappe is "fed Up" of having to play as Real's central striker, preferring a role on the left-wing. 

Vinicius Junior's performances on that side, though, mean it is unlikely he will be granted his wish any time soon by manager Carlo Ancelotti.
