France team: don’t talk to them about age, the “Mbappé generation” is taking power

Not even a quarter of a century and already Papa Smurf. Like Hugo Lloris before him, the legend Michel Platini too, Kylian Mbappé (66 caps, 36 goals) was therefore promoted to captain of the Blues even before he was 25 years old. An evidence more than a surprise as in reality the tricolor striker ticks all the boxes to inherit the armband. Young, charismatic, indisputable technical leader of the France team, the winner always pegged to the body and black belt in communication, the Parisian striker is the perfect summary of this post-World Cup collective with refreshing accents.
