Mbappe Discusses Griezmann Being Passed Over For The France Captaincy.

Kylian Mbappe, the new captain of France, called Antoine Griezmann’s unhappiness at not getting the job “understandable.”

After the international retirement of World Cup-winning captain Hugo Lloris, 24-year-old Mbappe was elected captain this week.

Griezmann, 32, was apparently dissatisfied with his position as vice-captain, and one story said that he was thinking about quitting.

In response to Antoine’s disappointment, which is reasonable, Mbappe added, “I talked to Antoine.”

“I admitted to him that I could have responded similarly.

What I said to him was that I wouldn’t be better than him as long as he remained vice captain and I remained captain.
