For his first call-up to the French team, Lucas Chevalier knows what to expect. The new goalkeeper of the Blues will have to sing along and take part in the traditional fashion show at Clairefontaine. But the Lille player does not plan to imitate his teammates.
It was bound to happen eventually. For several months, many have been campaigning for the call-up of Lucas Chevalier to the French team. The LOSC goalkeeper was finally rewarded this Thursday when coach Didier Deschamps called him up for the matches against Israel and Italy in the Nations League. A deserved selection for the Lille player who does not just shine in the championship.
The former Bleuets bulwark especially distinguished himself in the Champions League against opponents of the caliber of Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid and Juventus Turin. Confident of himself, Lucas Chevalier must have expected his presence on the list. The LOSC executive was therefore able to prepare for what awaits him for his first at Clairefontaine, namely hazing and the traditional fashion parade dear to Jules Koundé's teammates. “ The fashion show? Indeed, it is certain that these are things which have now become a habit in the French team, whether it is hazing or the uniform », Confided the Lille resident.
No rap for Chevalier
« We know that it is looked at very closely so we must not miss it. But don't worry, on the outfit I will be… There will be no problem, I have my own style, it may also allow people to see me without a footballer's outfit, but nothing extravagant don't worry. And then for the song, I'm thinking, it's sure that it's something that's being prepared a little. It will be French-speaking, something perhaps a little French-style, but not in Chti », announced Lucas Chevalier at the risk of shocking his new teammates.
