Deschamps said at his France media conference today: "I'm happy for him, although he scored in his first game, in the European Super Cup.

"Kylian sets very high standards. Carlo Ancelotti   was not worried. Neither was I. What happened last night is very good.

"He will join us with a smile. Later, being in the French team, in another context, with other players, is usually a break that suits many players."
