The tension rises between Griezmann and the Blues, Deschamps does not want to get involved

The tension rises between Griezmann and the Blues Deschamps does

The French team is back this week with the League of Nations and the double confrontation against Croatia.

It was almost six months … The Blues of Didier Deschamps are back this week with the final phase of the Nations League and the double confrontation against Croatia, on March 20 for the first leg and on March 23 for the return match which will be played at the Stade de France, a real advantage for the French team.

The Blues have been in full reconstruction since the retirements of certain executives, Olivier Giroud and Antoine Griezmann to name a few, and must prepare the 2026 World Cup. But preparing the future does not mean forgetting his past and that is why a tribute is planned for the players who have marked the Blues in recent years.

Giroud and Griezmann, still active, were to be put forward this Sunday, March 23, as explained by Philippe Diallo in a press point last Thursday: “I wanted the elders to benefit from a tribute from the fans. It is Olivier Giroud’s turn to receive a tribute from the Blues and the FFF for his career with the national selection”. Problem, Antoine Griezmann will not be present, enough to fuel a new discomfort … “Antoine Griezmann told me of his unavailability for March 23, it was awarded. When he came he will also have the tribute he deserves. It is a completely natural tribute that French football owes him,” said the president.

But as we know, the retirement of Antoine Griezmann was sudden and quite surprising and this rabbit posed, although Antoine Griezmann certainly has a good reason not to go to this tribute, again leaves a doubt. Especially after the somewhat embarrassed response of Didier Deschamps at a press conference.

“It must have been both but Antoine has a schedule that does not allow him to be there. It will be done later, after that lets go free. Interpret, imagine, if you have elements that I do not have today,” said Didier Deschamps. For some it can also mean that Griezmann did not make a final cross on the French team, despite his statements on the end of his history. We will see in a few days if it is not really a delivery for Griezmann.
