Kylian Mbappé sends a warning to his teammates
During an interview with M6, Kylian Mbappé spoke at length about the preparation of the Blues before their entry into the 2026 World Cup. And the French captain sent a strong message to his teammates. “In the two World Cups that I played, there were times when socially I was incompatible because you remain isolated for 60 days but if it were easy everyone would play a World Cup, we know that we are part of a minority, it is a status that we must never forget, we must assume it in good times and in bad. To make history, we must suffer and be prepared to suffer. We did it once, we were close to doing it a second time so we know how to do it but all the teams are going to go there with the idea of making history but no team should be hungrier than us..
Ambitious, Mbappé continued: “I’m starting to be a tough player, it’s a pleasure to guide on an emotional level more than the rest because you see the quality there is in this team, I’m not going to learn to play football, that would be a mistake but the emotional side, knowing that the World stops to look at you, it’s something you have to know how to manage because they’re the biggest opponent in a World Cup. Composing a group is an assembly of human beings, you have to manage that well. Like concentration, you must not lose it over the days, it is also something hard to manage. Favorite? Why hold back on having enthusiasm and ambition, they are players with maturity but the fire comes quickly and a World Cup, you miss a match you go home so we will have to control all that but we have already sent the message. We haven’t made history yet, we have to make it.”. A mission which will begin next Tuesday with a shock against Senegal.
