The France National Football Team is all set to be in action for the UEFA Nations League 2024-25 fixtures. France is all set to face the Israel National Football Team and later the Belgium National Football Team during the international break. Kylian Mbappe is set to miss both the UEFA Nations League matches for France. Mbappe joined La Liga giants Real Madrid from Ligue 1 side PSG in the 2024-25 season which is considered the one of high-profile transfers of all time. 15-time UEFA Champions League (UCL) winners Real Madrid lost their last UCL match against French side LOSC Lille. Andres Iniesta Retires: Real Madrid Release Statement After Barcelona Legend's Retirement, Calls Him ‘One of the Biggest Legends of Spanish and World Football’.

Kylian Mbappe did not receive a very positive welcome while entering Lille's home ground. Lille fans booed the France forward after he entered the field during Lille vs Real Madrid Champions League match. Mbappe sustained a minor injury on his thigh last month but recovered from it in no time. During a press conference, Ibrahim Konate said, "I don't understand why he is being booed in Lille. When I played against Toulouse with Liverpool [in the Europa League last season], they gave me an exceptional welcome. The Liverpool players really thought that I had played with Toulouse in my career. I think he is over that, but it must not be easy to experience that in his country, it's weird all the same." UEFA Nations League 2024-25: Belgium vs France, Germany vs Netherlands and Other Football Matches to Watch Out For in Nations League During International Break.
