Laurent Bonadei revealed the list of players called up to face Nigeria in a friendly (November 30 in Angers) and Spain, the reigning world champion (December 3 in Nice). Last minute package last month, Marie-Antoine Katoto, the center forward of PSG, returns to the Blue. Just like Amel Majri and Sakina Karchaoui.
The French women’s team will once again be able to count on its number 9. Marie-Antoinette Katoto is one of the players called up to face Nigeria in a friendly (November 30 in Angers) and Spain, the reigning world champion (December 3 in Nice). Last minute package during the previous gathering, at the end of October, the PSG striker is back in the selection. The 26-year-old, author of 35 goals in 45 caps, will be one of the main assets of the Blues against the teammates of the double Ballon d’Or Aitana Bonmati.
For this last training course of the year, Laurent Bonadei called together a group of thirty players. Amel Majri is one of them. The OL midfielder, aged 31, was in the infirmary last month. But she had not been called up for the French team since last February, due to her poor relations with Hervé Renard, Laurent Bonadei’s predecessor.
De Almeida and Mbock uncertain
Also absent during the last gathering, Sakina Karchaoui, the left side of PSG, is also returning to the Blues. Despite their uncertainty over his physical condition, Elisa de Almeida and Griedge Mbock have been called up, but they are not expected to participate in the matches against Nigeria and Spain.
