France coach Deschamps hands Griezmann ultimatum over his future


France coach Didier Deschamps has asked Antoine Griezmann and Thomas Lemar to clarify their futures before the start of the World Cup in Russia next week.

According to the French media, Deschamps has given the duo the ultimatum because he doesn’t want the speculation about their future to affect the camp during the finals.

Deschamps, who has just renewed his contract with France, wants complete calm among the squad. The ultimatum runs until Sunday, one day after France’s friendly against the United States, their final game before the World Cup.
