Koundé benched again under Zidane

French defender Jules Koundé has not seen any playing time in his last three matches with the national team, continuing his recent benching trend from Barcelona. The 27-year-old right-back, who joined the French squad after being a substitute in six of Barcelona's seven league games, entered only once in the 29th minute against Valencia after Eric Garcia's injury. ipl-today.in

With Zinedine Zidane now in charge, Koundé's situation hasn't improved much compared to his time under Hansi Flick at Barcelona, raising concerns about his future playing opportunities.
