France's national team fans will likely see a somewhat changed position for forward Kylian Mbappé on the field.

"RMC Sport” reports that the new team strategist Zinedine Zidane would like to see the sniper more often on the left side of the field.

"He can play in all three positions. Kylian himself has said that.

For example, I really like to see him on the left side,” Zidane said.

On September 25, the France national team will play an away match in the UEFA Nations League against Turkey.

This will be Zidane's debut match at the helm of the France national team. Later, the French will play away against Belgium on September 28, and on October 2 they will host Italy at home.
