The France squad have been praised for the openness towards the political situation in the country whilst on Euro 2024 duty.
Captain Kylian Mbappe and his new Real Madrid teammate Aurelien Tchouameni echoed Kounde’s comments with Le Pen publicly criticising Mbappe’s stance.
However, the impact has had the desire effect for Kounde and Co, with early exit polls indicating Le Pen’s party will finish third in the final tallies.
Current president Emmanuel Macron and his centrist alliance Ensemble are tipped for second, with Jean-Luc Melenchon’s left-wing New Popular Front first, but without a majority.
