Speaking to Téléfoot this Sunday, Didier Deschamps, head coach of Les Bleus, announced that Mike Maignan will wear the captain's armband on Monday. This will be against Iceland, as Kylian Mbappé is ruled out.

It's worth noting that this will be the first time Mike Maignan takes on this responsibility at the start of a match for France. However, it's not a new experience for him—he is already the captain at AC Milan.
