Karim Benzema still separated from the French team. Since 2015, when the Valbuena case that affected the forward came to light, he has not worn his national team jersey again. However, it remains a very hot topic that is even more prominent during FIFA dates. In addition, Benzema's great moment in the Madrid has caused it to have more followers every day who, on the contrary, criticize Didier Deschamps. The coach is running out of supports. Not only are they blaming him for not summoning the nine, but he is also not liking the way he is dealing with such a sensitive subject.
The last one was at the press conference prior to the duel against Kazakhstan, in which a journalist asked him about the matter again. “Even here? I'm sure a French journalist must have told you to ask that …” he commented with a laugh. His answer did not like anything to Johan Micoud, former player of the French team. “It just makes him laugh. It seems terrible to me not to see Benzema with France again. It doesn't make me laugh at all. I do not understand that he does not respond, “he explained annoyed.
Although some appreciate that Deschamps does not get angry when asked about Karim, for Micoud it is normal: “Ah! Because he would also have to be upset when we ask him why the best French striker is not in the national team“, criticizes.
Among the supports, the coach has found Vincent Moscato, former rugby player and contributor to RMC, who was very angry with some words from the forward. “Are we going to give the national team jersey to a guy who said that half of France is racist?“He wondered.” Either he apologizes or he will not play with the national team again, “he says.
With Noel You Graet still in charge of the Federation French, Deschamps will have absolute backing. The top leader of French football has always trusted the coach who gave the country the second World Cup in its history.
There is already a date for the trial: from October 20 to 22
In January, it was reported from the Versailles Prosecutor's Office that Benzema would be tried in the Valbuena case. It was decided to reopen the procedure due to a series of events that could determine the guilt of the forward. The date on which the dress will take place is already known: from October 20 to 22. It should be remembered that, according to the French Court, the Madrid player could have incited Valbuena, at that time a teammate, to pay money to blackmailers to prevent the dissemination of a sex video.
