“I had an exchange of words with him and I understand that it is the best decision. I can tell you two things: one, that Mbappe wanted to come and, secondly, it has nothing to do with anything off the field (referring to do not rape investigation in Sweden). There is a presumption of innocence.”

Like the rest of his teammates, Mbappe's form has come into question of late, with just three goals without penalties coming from him in La Liga, and a string of missed opportunities against Barcelona and AC Milan. The 25-year-old is apparently frustrated by the way Carlo Ancelotti is using himbut now he will have extra time in training camp with him to fix it.
