After the injury to Strasbourg player Robin Risser Birckel, AJ Auxerre goalkeeper Théo De Percin was called up this Wednesday, June 26, to the French U23 team to prepare for the Olympic Games in Paris next month.
A new AJA player is getting closer to the Olympic Games! If Guinean internationals Ousmane Camara and Madiou Keita have had the Paris Olympics in their sights for several months already, Théo De Percin suddenly saw his near future turned upside down this Wednesday. After the injury of the third goalkeeper, Strasbourg’s Robin Risser Birckel, the Auxerre club’s goalkeeper was called as reinforcement in the pre-list of the French U23 team to prepare for the Olympic competition.
Martinique international, Théo De Percin will join the French squad currently training at Clairefontaine. Exceptional news for the 23-year-old player who will have had a rich year in his young career. A starter in the Coupe de France, with an XXL performance despite the elimination in Nice in January. First selection with Martinique. First match in Ligue 2 on the last day of the championship in May. Not to mention his extension at AJA until 2026. And now discovery of the French team.
