He said to L'Équipe in October 2018 on rumors of joining Madagascar: "I am French, I have never been Malagasy. I don’t know why everything came out like this. On my side, there is nothing to it. You only have to look at my passport. It says ‘French’ on it. If the coach calls me, it’s a no. In addition, at the administrative level, I can’t even. I am not Malagasy.” "The French national team jersey is important to me. I won’t wear any other jersey than that one. I am French, proud to be so, and I have no intention of playing the AFCON with anyone else,”   submitted by   /u/AgeNovel3566 [link]   [comments]
