Kylian Mbappe returns from injury to captain the France national football team in friendlies against the Brazil national football team on March 26 and the Colombia national football team 3 days later in the USA. Coach Didier Deschamps included him after missing 5 club games. These matches precede France’s World Cup squad announcement on May 13.

As the international break approaches, Kylian Mbappé has returned from injury to lead the France national football team squad for upcoming friendlies against Brazil national football team and the Colombia national football team in the United States. The matches are scheduled for March 26 in Foxborough and March 29 near Washington DC, serving as the final preparation before the World Cup squad announcement on May 13.

Head coach Didier Deschamps has included Mbappé despite his recent knee injury, with the forward having missed five club matches before making a substitute appearance in a Champions League win over Manchester City. He is expected to lead the attack. The squad features a mix of experienced players and emerging talents.

Notable inclusions are Eduardo Camavinga, N'Golo Kanté, and Aurélien Tchouaméni in midfield, while attackers like Ousmane Dembélé, Marcus Thuram, and Randal Kolo Muani provide depth. Young players such as Rayan Cherki and Hugo Ekitike have also earned call-ups. France will compete in Group I at the World Cup alongside Senegal and Norway, with one playoff team yet to be confirmed.
