France forward, Ousmane Dembele, has defended his teammate Kylian Mbappe, saying that people should stop criticizing the Real Madrid star.
Mbappe has been the subject of intense scrutiny since taking over the France captaincy in 2023.
Also, since he failed to win any major trophy at Real Madrid last season.
Speaking to Marca ahead of France’s World Cup opener against Senegal on Tuesday, Dembele said, “There are too many critics towards Kylian.
“Mbappe is incredible, a top player and a great guy off the pitch. People should not be so aggressive against him.
“They criticise Kylian for anything he does. That’s way too much.”
