Not included in the list of the 24 players of Didier Deschamps to challenge Georgia (March 22) and Spain (26 March) as part of qualifying for the 2014 World Cup, Lassana Diarra draws a line under his international career.

Since August 2010, he has not appeared in the French team. The midfielder of the Anzhi Makhachkala does not mince words regarding Didier Deschamps. The Franco-Malian does not understand how the current coach Didier Deschamps can define Anzhi as an exotic club.

“The Anji L1 will not end last. Be careful about what you say when you’re coach […] When he speaks, it has impacts. In August, I saw him in Madrid, after a match against Valencia (August 19, 1-1). I was holder. A week later, he announced a list. I’m not in it. I wonder why … “
“I thought I would be called to Finland and Belarus (1-0 and 3-1, September 2012). I was holder with Real. The discussion went well. When I found the list … Rarely have I been so surprised. I thought I would be, really. I made a full preparation. ‘
“They are funny these coaches! How can the team of France be your goal when you’re a Real player and be treated as such! You cannot make your career in terms of the Blues when, six months, one year, they do not give you any news and tell foolish things about you, your career, and your game time on TV ” “I think I will have my place in the group.”
