The suspense remains whole, total.
This Tuesday morning, around 11 a.m., coach Corinne Deacon will unveil the list of 23 players selected to compete in the Tournoi de France, a friendly competition organized in Normandy from February 16 to 22, against Finland, Brazil and the Netherlands. -Low.
One of the last opportunities to review the squad before the key event of the year, the Women's Euro to be held in England from July 6 to 31.
The announcement of the list is therefore awaited by many players.
And more particularly by one of them, the Parisian Kheira Hamraoui.
According to our information, which confirms that of RMC Sport, the PSG player, who was pre-summoned by Corinne Deacon, would be in the list of calls of the day.
An announcement that may seem surprising, even confusing, even if the coach is a fan of the opposite.
Three months after the aggression of which she was the victim in the Bois de Boulogne - a case still unsolved, with many twists and major repercussions - the 32-year-old midfielder returned to the game recently, on January 23 during the victory at Saint-Étienne (0-5), in the French championship.
A week later, Hamraoui was on the lawn of Camp des Loges (Saint-Germain-en-Laye) to face rival Lyon in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France.
A meeting concluded with a victory (3-0) and qualification for the quarter-finals.

The performance of the PSG midfielder would have convinced the coach, present at the match with her staff, to give her a chance.
Deacon had already wanted to see the former Barcelona player again in October during the qualifying matches for the World Cup, but Hamraoui, injured, withdrew.
A month later, the "physical and psychological trauma" after the attack had convinced the coach to wait, as with Aminata Diallo, briefly placed in police custody in this case before being released without any charge against her.
Kheira Hamraoui is therefore very close to making his big comeback with the Bleues almost three years after his 36th and last selection (April 4, 2019).
The internationals playing in French D1 are expected from Saturday at Clairefontaine.
The full group will leave Yvelines on Monday afternoon to settle in Deauville, halfway between Le Havre and Caen, where their three matches of the Tournoi de France are scheduled: the 16th against Finland, the 19th against Brazil and the 22nd against the Dutch, reigning European champions.
In 2020, the French won the first edition of this four-team friendly tournament organized by the FFF each year.
The competition was canceled in 2021 due to complications related to the health crisis.
