FFF president Le Graet admits Mbappe Real Madrid move good for Les Bleus

French Football Federation president Noel Le Graet admits a move to Real Madrid for Kylian Mbappe can be good for the national team.

Leaving PSG for Real this summer would mean Mbappe playing alongside France teammate Karim Benzema.

Le Graet told Ouest France: "These are two players above the lot technically, who necessarily get along well.

"For me, there is no problem if one plays at Real and the other at PSG. Like Germany with Bayern, I would obviously like to have a backbone of five or six players from the same club in the France team, but that is not a truth in current football.

"And we were world champion with players from different clubs."
