One France star has broken his silence on Kylian Mbappe, who was caught at a nightclub after deciding not to play for the national side.
The Real Madrid asked Didier Deschamps not to be included in the squad for the October international break to help his recovery to full fitness.

However, Deschamps was reportedly shocked to see Mbappe start for Madrid against Villarreal in their final game before the FIFA break.
Mbappe also did himself no favours after he was spotted at a night club in Sweden this week.
Chelsea and France defender Wesley Fofana has now defended his teammate over the recent news.
"People can do what they want with their free time," Fofana told reporters, as per Goal.
"It isn't something we [the France squad] have talked about today, I hadn't heard about this story. He does what he wants; he is a great guy and a great professional. Are we making too much of it? I don't know.
"He's the best French player, so it's normal that it is very publicised. I think that from time to time [the media] go a little too far.
"You should ask Kylian Mbappé for more information."
