France head coach Didier Deschamps has claimed that Antoine Griezmann is unhappy with his role at Barcelona under new manager Ronald Koeman.

Griezmann has spent the last two matches in a wide right position, with Koeman preferring Philippe Coutinho in the number 10 role and Ansu Fati on the left behind Lionel Messi.

However, Deschamps has questioned the use of the World Cup winner, insisting that he needs to be more involved in the game from a central position to get the best out of him.

"I'm talking to him and I'll see him later. I am sure he is not happy with this situation. I don't interfere with the use of my players in other clubs, be at Barca or anyone else," Deschamps told reporters.

"Antoine is playing on the right there at the moment. It's true that Koeman said, and told him, that he did not understand that he was used to playing in a more central position. But Antoine must also adapt today.

"For me, he is still more effective when he is in the heart of the game, when he is able to touch the ball a lot. In that position, he has the possibility to come and help in the midfield too.

"He doesn't have the ability to take the ball and beat opponents on the wing like others. He needs to touch the ball a lot and he is smart in his movement."

Griezmann is part of the France squad due to face Ukraine, Portugal and Croatia this month.
