The young Losc goalkeeper, Lucas Chevalier, reacted to his first call-up to the French team.
As if it were obvious. Imperial since the start of the season under the colors of Losc, Lucas Chevalier was rightly rewarded this Thursday. For the very first time,
the 23-year-old goalkeeper was called up by Didier Deschamps for this gathering in November, which will see the Blues face Israel (November 14) and Italy (November 17).
On his social networks, Lucas Chevalier reacted to his summons. “It’s a great pride for me, he declared. It's a long-term job but it's just another step in my career. You have to know how to savor, appreciate and continue to work of course. Many thanks to you for the support. We will continue to defend the colors of LOSC and now of France. »
Deschamps on Chevalier: “It’s an important step for him”
At a press conference this Thursday, Didier Deschamps justified his choice to include the young Lille player in his list. “ This is an important step for him. He performed well last season and continues to do so on the European scene. This is to the detriment of Alphonse Areola who is not there. Events have brought him here. He joins this group and the brotherhood of guardians », breathed the coach.
It is indeed Alphonse Areola who is paying the price for Lucas Chevalier's arrival in the French team. The latter is accompanied by Mike Maignan and Brice Samba, respectively number and number two in the hierarchy.
