Kylian Mbappe has claimed he is allowed to play with “much more freedom” with France than with Paris Saint-Germain after netting in their Nations League win over Austria.
The striker opened the scoring in France’s two-goal victory on Thursday night to move them off the foot of the group standings. His strike partner Olivier Giroud doubled the lead in what was ultimately a routine, but significant, victory for Didier Deschamps’s side.
Mbappe’s comments are the latest indication that the striker is somewhat unsettled in Paris and comes after his falling out with Neymar over the order of penalty takers in the team during the Ligue 1 clash against Montpellier last month. Former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos was reportedly forced to step in to separate the feuding pair in the dressing room after that incident.
