The organizers of the future World Cup were hoping to have one of the planet's most famous football players, Kylian Mbappe, present at the draw ceremony, but their plans fell through. The line-ups for the planet's competition in Qatar will be revealed on Friday, but another person will be pulling the draw balls. "L'Equipe" reports that the 23-year-old World Cup champion declined the invitation from Qataris, citing simple reasons. According to the forward, he is not the captain of the French national team, and furthermore, important "Ligue 1" matches against the "Lorient" team are approaching, and the player wants to prepare properly for the game.
