Didier Deschamps confirmed in the press conference prior to the World Cup final his total distancing from Karim Benzema. Despite recovering from his physical problems, the Real Madrid player stayed in Valdebebas
The relation between Karim Benzema and Didier Deschamps seems, to these heights, totally broken. The seleccionador raised the veto that kept the French Federation of Football (FFF) to the forward from 2014, quoting him for the Euro 2020, the UEFA Nations League and the World-wide . However, the previous weeks to the beginning of the tournament began to weaken the relation between both, to the pair that the physicist of the forward also happened bill.
As they confirm diverse local means, the problems with Benzema began since the player of 34 years won his first Balloon of Gold in October. Deschamps Expected some word of gratitude of Karim for his mates of the selection in the gala of France Football, but this no sucedió. Still like this, the technician kept him in the list of 26 summoned for Qatar and, after his drop for the start of the tournament by problems in the right thigh, the trainer kept him between the summoned, expecting a possible recovery in record time.
Nevertheless, the good performance showed by Olivier Giroud reassured to Deschamps the one who, after noticing how the forward happened to congratulate to the group while it went surpassing phases in the tournament, finished of hartarse of the captain of the Real Madrid, whose presence in the team, really, weighed little after his return. By the contrary, without Benzema in the eleven, to Kylian Mbappé has seen him more comfortable and so much Giroud like Ousmane Dembélé have done the work.
Like this the things, Karim happened to be a fundamental drop to a descarte necessary for France. The Frenchmen will look for to revalidate the title achieved in 2018 this Sunday, without the flamante Balloon of Gold 2022. This yes, to the have not been excluded of the official announcement, the FIFA will send to the forward his medal of champion of the world if 'Them Bleus' defeat to Argentina. Yes, to Benzema will explain him the World-wide in his list of winners although not even it have occupied the bench in any of the seven parties.
Deschamps Fed up of the questions on Benzema
In the previous press conference to the final in front of Argentina, Didier left very clear his annoyance by the reiterated questions on the '9'. "If I do not answer to the questions on Karim will say that I am angered. There are players that have lesionado before the World-wide and Benzema was one of them. The last, Lucas Hernández. From here it had 24 footballers. Put the focus in the others is uncomfortable, at least", sustained the míster.
Besides, on the invitation that the president Frenchman, Emmanuel Macron, did to the player to travel to Doha to witness the final (the forward did not accept), added: "I do not occupy me of the invitations to players, ex players or lesionados, do not know who will come. All formed part of the start of the adventure, but tomorrow will be 24", puntualizó Deschamps. Clearly, it will be difficult to see to the of Lyon celebrating with his mates if France obtains the tricampeonato.
