Forward Real Madrid Karim Benzema shared his opinion about the French national team.

The striker of Real Madrid has not been called to the French team for 2.5 years because of a conflict with the head coach Didier Deschamps.

"Of course I want to return to the French team. I think I am a contender for the place of the team, but still missed the home for us the Euro, despite the fact that he spent a strong season for the club.

I do not disagree with Deshome, but at the same time I understand - while he is in the team, I will not be called there. Before the Euro 2016, no one explained to me.

Despite this, I continue to believe that I will go to the 2018 World Cup. But I think that you should not deceive yourself, "- says Benzema L'Equipe.

In the current championship of Spain Benzema in the Real Madrid was noted only one goal.
