Griezmann considering retiring from France duty because of Mbappe!

French press reports revealed that Antoine Griezmann is reportedly mulling over his international future with France after seeing captaincy duty passed to Kylian Mbappe.  The reports revealed Griezmann, Atletico Madrid's star was angry at the decision of France head coach Didier Deschamps to appoint Kylian Mbappe as the new captain of the national team, to succeed goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. According to L’Equipe, talismanic Paris Saint-Germain forward Mbappe is set to inherit the armband with Les Bleus following the retirement of World Cup-winning goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. Didier Deschamps is said to have given careful consideration to the many options available to him before settling on the 24-year-old frontman. That decision is said to have annoyed long-serving Griezmann, with Le Figaro claiming that he is now considering ruling himself out of contention for future call-ups. The 32-year-old Atletico Madrid star has earned 117 caps for his country since making a senior debut back in 2014. Griezmann has scored 42 goals for France, helping them to global glory back in 2018, and is said to be of the opinion that his vast experience would make him a suitable successor to Lloris. He has previously said of his commitment to the collective cause: “I give everything for France and for Deschamps.”
Griezmann played 117 matches for the French national team, during which he scored 42 goals and provided 36 assists, and he won the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
