In an interview with L'Équipe on Saturday, Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema spoke about the news of his current club as well as his return to the French team.

Asked about the collective performance of the Blues during the last Euro against Switzerland, the former Lyonnais did not hide his frustration, especially given the quality of the France workforce.

“With the team we had, it wasn't a good Euro overall. France was vice-champion of Europe, world champion. We had the players to do a lot better. We would all have liked to go much further.

We got out in the eighth by Switzerland (3-3, 4 t.a.b. to 5, note) and leading 3-1 ten minutes from the end. They come back to score, there are the shots on goal, it's a coin toss. We should have done a lot better."
