Attackers: Bradley Barcola, Marcus Thuram, Randal Colombia, Michael Olise, Ousmane Dembele, Christopher Nkunku.
14h33 : Well, it’s already over! To remember: the premiere of Lucas Chevalier and the absence of Kylian Mbappé. But also the printer problem which delayed the announcement and a slightly angry Didier Deschamps. Thank you for following the conference with us! Good afternoon!
14h31 : Hey, a question about Pavard! The door is not closed but “it’s up to him to maintain what he does with his club”. “There is a lot of competition in his position. »
14h27: Why is Rabiot returning to the French team? “Because here it is”. Ah, super.
14h26 : Didier Deschamps : “I’m not on social media but there are fake accounts”. Well, he seems really upset this afternoon.
14h23: Very shaky communication from the coach about Kylian Mbappé who refuses to reveal too much. He left for ten days with the same questions at press conferences. “He is in a period where he is less effective”.
14h21 : Who will be captain? We will know Thursday the day of the match, or Wednesday if he sends it to a press conference. He wants to take advantage of this gathering to “empower” more players.
14h15 : “I don’t want to tell you more, I accept my decision”… Super ambiance. “It’s better this way”.
14h13 : Here is the list with the absence of Mbappé! For what ? DD does not want to justify himself too much but insists that it is his decision and not that of the Madrilenian who “wanted to come”. He specifies that his extra-sporting affairs (accusations of rape) are not taken into account in the coach’s thinking. It’s a “punctual absence”according to DD.
14h08 : The boss is here! We shut up and listen…
14h05 : There is Thomas Morlec and his lenses which blow my mind that Pierre Lees-Melou disturbs… I will let you judge the opinion of our Brest journalist.
13h59: How many minutes late for DD this time?
13h55: Spoiler: Rayan Cherki will be boycotted again….
13h49 : According to RMC Sport and The ParisianKylian Mbappé SHOULD NOT be called by Didier Deschamps at 2 p.m.… Does he still have a getaway planned?
1:45 p.m.: HELLO THE LISTIX!! I’m doing well ? Didier Deschamps will reveal his last list of the year (finally). So, who do you see? Apparently, it smells good for Lucas Chevalier, or even for Maghnes Akliouche…
