The Blues are back. The France group will face Sweden (September 5 at Solna) and Croatia (September 8 at the Stade de France) and Didier Deschamps unveiled his list this Thursday. With several newcomers, Rennais Eduardo Camavinga, Lyonnais Houssem Aouar and Leipzig player Dayot Upamecano. Several players have been forced to give up selection due to coronavirus. The circles Paul Pogba and Tanguy Ndombélé, positive for Covid-19, are concerned. This also explains the big premiere of Camavinga, 17 years old. A big comeback too: the former banished Adrien Rabiot. "He found a very good level with Juventus", explained "DD", not resentful.
The national coach has also summoned several players who were affected by the Champions League final, Parisians Kylian Mbappé and Presnel Kimpembe and Bavarian Lucas Hernandez. Not Kingsley Coman, Corentin Tolisso or Benjamin Pavard. Last but not least, if Blaise Matuidi "remains selectable" and Deschamps does not want to take a "radical position", "his situation becomes a little complicated compared to the France team". The 33-year-old world champion has just joined MLS and Inter Miami. “I know that this can jeopardize my future in blue,” the former Parisian recently agreed on RMC . Well seen ... Remember that these two matches count for the Nations League.
