On June 27, French football legend Petit criticized Mbappe, pointing out that he had not shown the qualities of a national team leader and that his scoring efficiency had declined significantly.
Speaking about Mbappe, Petit said: “Both in the dressing room and on the pitch, Mbappe is the focus of everyone’s attention, and he enjoys living in the spotlight. Mbappe also enjoys his time with the national team, he smiles often, and his relationship with his teammates is very good.”
Petit then went on to criticize Mbappe: “For me, Mbappe is probably the best player in this French team, and the team fully supports him. But as I said before, Mbappe has not proven his leadership qualities on the pitch, he has not met people’s expectations. Mbappe is the captain of France, he wants to be the best player in the world, he wants to win the Ballon d’Or, he should prove he is the best with his actions, but so far he has not lived up to people’s expectations.”
Petit also pointed out Mbappe’s declining efficiency on the pitch: “Before, Mbappe only needed 1-2 chances to score, now he might need 5-6 chances to reach his goal.”
