Didier Deschamps was again questioned about the case of a Karim Benzema visibly disagreeing with the version given by his former coach on his departure from the Blues.
The mystery remains intact. More than a week after the interview he gave to two media, in which he notably mentioned the withdrawal and the hasty departure of Karim Benzema when the France team was preparing to start the 2022 World Cup at Qatar, Didier Deschamps again raised the subject. This Sunday on the show Telefoot, the tricolor coach spoke very briefly about what he considers to be an event of the past.
« I’m not in controversyhe said. I was brought to speak to say what had happened, but that already belongs to the past for me. Today, what is important is what is in front of us with the twenty-three players that I have selected and in whom I have confidence in relation to the two matches that we have to play. If he says he is entirely focused on the two qualifying matches for Euro 2024 against the Netherlands (March 24) and Ireland (March 27), Didier Deschamps no longer seems to want to talk about the subject Benzema .
Expected version
He may, however, have to do it again in the coming weeks as the Real Madrid player has warned on his social media that he is going to speak andexplain for the people“. The particularly awaited version of Karim Benzema, if it is finally unveiled, will force the press to question Didier Deschamps. Even if he wishes, the coach has not yet completely turned this page.
