Kylian Mbappe has been named captain of the French national team following the retirement of Hugo Lloris, a source close to the team told AFP on Monday

Paris Saint-Germain forward Mbappe, 24, accepted the offer following discussions with coach Didier Deschamps earlier in the day.

Tottenham goalkeeper, Lloris ended his international career in January after losing the World Cup a month earlier against Argentina.

Lloris, 36, had been skipper for more than a decade.

Atletico Madrid forward, Antoine Griezmann was also named vice-captain after Manchester United centre-back Rapheal Varane followed suit in hanging his boots following the defeat against Argentina in December.

Mbappe, who has played 66 times for county, had been linked heavily with the role owing to his wonderful performance, scoring a hat-trick in the World Cup final December last year.

He is also vice-captain at PSG behind Brazil’s Marquinhos and also led the side in the defender’s absence during their defeat to Rennes.

His first game as captain comes on Friday for their Euro 2024 qualifier against the Netherlands at the Stade de France.
