It's time for the last squad review before getting down to business. The Blues' next matches will be decisive with the quarter-finals of the Nations League then the qualifications for the 2026 World Cup.
After the hiccup against Israel (0-0), Didier Deschamps therefore made 7 changes without there being a cause and effect link. It was planned in the coach's schedule. “ I need to see players, give them minutes », He explained while France will try to regain first place in the group from Italy.
The whole environment changes for this match. Exit Kanté, Camavinga and Zaire-Emery, to make way for Koné who has given good results since his first selection, Guendouzi and Rabiot, who entered well on Thursday.
Up front, it also changes. Kolo Muani should be shifted to one side to leave Thuram up front, with Nkunku taking the other side.
Behind, we find the Konaté – Saliba pair, the most used during this League of Nations (4th time), and Digne will celebrate his 50th selection.
ITALY – FRANCE, this evening at 8:45 p.m.
France : Maignan ; Conquered, Saliba, Conquered, Worthy ; Guendouzi, Cone, Rabiot ; Colonel Muani, Thuram, Nkunku
