French pundit Pierre Menes can't see Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema playing for Les Bleus while Didier Deschamps is in charge.

Deschamps has frozen out Benzema since he was caught up in an alleged blackmail plot last year.

And despite his sudden form surge, Menes can't see a recall for Benzema anytime soon.

"As long as Deschamps will be the coach, Benzema will not come back. He does not want him. He finds him harmful to the group.

"Deschamps wants above all a 'yes-yes' team," he said.
