Surprises, very few for Corinne Deacon.
The French coach should not surprise her world this Monday noon when it comes to revealing the identity of the 23 players selected for Euro 2022, which will take place from July 6 to 31 in England.
This list will largely resemble the last, called last April for the 2023 World Cup qualifiers. One exception, however: it will be necessary to replace Dijon goalkeeper Solène Durand, operated in May and forfeited for several months.
For the rest, we must expect the absences of the Parisian Kheira Hamraoui and the Lyonnaises Amandine Henry and Eugénie Le Sommer.
Regarding the first, even if Corinne Deacon had wanted to see her again in February, she has since been removed from the group at PSG and has not played for several weeks.
His impossible agreement with executives Kadidiatou Diani and Marie-Antoinette Katoto makes it difficult to imagine a return to the France team.
As for the Lyonnaises, a reappearance is unlikely.
All despite their season and an 8th European title.
Amandine Henry has not been selected since November 2020. Eugénie Le Sommer, since April 2021 and the last defeat of Les Bleues against the United States.
On the other hand, Lyonnaise Selma Bacha, 21, absent in April, should be present this time.
2️⃣ competitions, 1️⃣ only ambition!

In Group D, Les Bleues will face Italy (July 10), Belgium (July 14) and Iceland (July 18) at the Euro.
Before their departure, Corinne Deacon's players will play two preparation matches: against Cameroon on Saturday June 25 in Beauvais (Oise) and against Vietnam on Friday July 1 in Orléans.
