(Reuters) - Captain Kylian Mbappe will return to the French national team in March for their Nations League quarter-final matches against Croatia, head coach Didier Deschamps said on Friday.
The 26-year-old striker, who has 86 caps for France, was not included in the squads for their Nations League fixtures in October and November after signing with Real Madrid in July.
