French federation (FFF) president Noel Le Graet will write to Kylian Mbappe to remind him of his contractual obligations after the France forward failed to attend a marketing event while on international duty.
“I told him to come down and participate in the operations with the sponsors,” Le Graet told French sports daily L'Equipe on Wednesday.
“At one point he was ready to do so. Then he said: 'No, I'm not going down'. What do you want to do?”
It was unclear why the 23-year-old Mbappe, who plays for Paris St Germain, did not take part in the photo shoot and who the sponsors were.
The FFF did not respond to a request for comment.
“There will be a letter from the lawyers which will be sent to him and his lawyer," Le Graet said.
“We are going to see point by point what the problem is. We want to improve things and make people happy, both sponsors and players.”
World champions France play Ivory Coast in a friendly in Marseille on Friday and Le Graet is hoping to discuss the matter with Mbappe who will not be sanctioned.
“Everything that is sanctions always annoys me,” Le Graet said.
“I don't like that word. But there will be a conversation. And there will be another operation with the sponsors in the autumn, before we go to the World Cup.
“I assure you that by then everything will be settled. There is no arm wrestling. The little worries are part of life. Kylian will be on the pitch in Marseille and I hope he will be good.”

No matter how great players or intellectuals you are no one is above the country identity of pride or freedom ,a player should be patriotic and nationalistic in his or her approach in character and discipline. Mbappe is a class and top notch player but he should remember not everyone gets the same opportunity to represent one's own nation and to blunder national duty is a shame ,his side to might have a righteous story of choice but how good a player might be acting Diva and wanting special attributes just because you play well shouldn't be entertained.

Bruv you stop spitting rubbish this has nothing to do with being patriotic And being patriotic isn’t by force and can lead to disasters And Mbappe obviously didn’t participate in the photo shoot because it was against his morals as his agent stated

America sent Muhammad Ali to jail because he refused to be inducted in a draft army!! at the end he won the Case!! Right is right even if the world is doing it and only one person is against it. Wrong is wrong even if one person is doing it and the whole world is against it!! You can only be a puppet of hypocrite if you don't have identity!!
