However, fans of the French national team are disappointed in Mbappe for deciding to prioritize Real Madrid over his country despite being one of the most senior players in the squad and the captain of the team. Fabien Bonnel, the spokesperson for the Irresistibles Francais, the main France supporters' group has expressed his disappointment to L'Equipe, and taken shots at the 25-year-old for not being the 'real captain' of the side.

In his column with L'Equipe, Bonnel wrote: "What stands out for us this week is that the real captain has left, the one who was knighted by the supporters, Antoine Griezmann.
"We wondered if the choice of captain had been the right one, and with this episode, I don't know. There is a mistake somewhere, while we have just lost a model of exemplarity.
"Either Real [Madrid] asks him to keep quiet, or France, but we know that when he wants to talk, he talks. He must assume his captaincy. I wouldn't go so far as to say that we feel like we are being taken for fools, and I don't know by whom. But it is a week to forget and it will be hard, because it will leave its mark.
