Mbappé Returns to France Squad After Six-Month Absence

The Real Madrid star will captain Les Bleus in their Nations League quarterfinal against Croatia, while PSG's 19-year-old Désiré Doué earns his first call-up.

Kylian Mbappé has been included in Didier Deschamps' France squad for the UEFA Nations League quarterfinals after being absent for over six months.
Mbappé, who has scored 28 goals this season for Real Madrid, was previously left out due to fitness concerns and personal controversies but remains the team's captain.
France will face Croatia in a two-leg quarterfinal, with the first match in Split on March 20 and the return leg at Stade de France on March 23.
Teenage PSG winger Désiré Doué, 19, has been called up for the first time after an impressive season, contributing to 17 goals in 23 appearances for his club.
N'Golo Kanté is absent from the squad due to a minor muscle injury, while regulars like Eduardo Camavinga and Jules Koundé are included.
