Benzema and current France national team coach Deschamps fell out completely, and according to French media outlet RMC, players will reject the retirement ceremony prepared by the French Football Association and the national team for him, Varane, Lowry, Mandanda and Matuidi.
Recently, Deschamps was interviewed by Baptiste Desprez, a reporter from France's Le Figaro, and the two talked about the reason why Benzema did not play in the 2022 World Cup. The French hero explained in detail the situation at that time.
Deschamps said that when Benzema was diagnosed with an injury and the team doctor recommended returning to training on December 10, the French star chose not to say goodbye after a long conversation all night.
Baptiste Desprez asked a very pointed question at this point: some media outlets thought the players were positive about his departure. It can be seen that Deschamps is a little excited when answering this question: Of course not, Benzema can make us stronger, only a fool cannot realize this.
After the World Cup, Benzema announced his retirement from the national team, and some time ago saw Deschamps' exclusive interview, the French striker couldn't hold back, and attacked Deschamps on social media as a brazen clown who didn't want to face. The next time, Zema said on social media that he would explain the World Cup to people, but for the past 8 days, Benzema still did not tell his story with Deschamps.
There is no denying that Benzema has achieved significant results at Real Madrid, but his performance in the national team is indeed not as good as at club level, and he is a ticking time bomb inside the national team and in the dressing room.
In 2015, the French star and a total of five friends blackmailed his national team teammate Valbuena, a case that was decided in 2021, when the Versailles Criminal Court sentenced Benzema to one year of suspended imprisonment and a fine of 75,000 euros for attempted extortion.
As we all know, the French national team is not abnormal without infighting, there are many mountains in the team, but the "good brothers" of each mountain are very moral, whenever a player is absent, teammates will send more or less blessings, but Benzema, as the biggest player in the team, was injured and absent and even tore his face with Deschamps, and no national team teammates came out to support, which shows that journalist Baptiste Desprez's positive attitude towards his departure is likely to be true.
Benzema was also out of the Euro 2016 squad when he slammed Deschamps for racism and was ignored because of his North African ancestry. At that time, Deschamps was attacked online and even by extremists.
Deschamps' heart is very broad, and for anyone else, Benzema has no chance of entering the French national team again.
Last year's Ballon d'Or selection also had an interesting report, when everyone was discussing who was the boss of the French team between Benzema and Mbappe, and a reporter said it was Mbappe, and Benzema made a poster of the reporter and hung it on the wall and posted a social media: Play hard.
