François Hollande will attend the Nations League match between and Israel this Thursday, November 14 at the Stade de France. The former President of the Republic and current deputy for the first constituency of Corrèze wanted to go to Saint-Denis to see the meeting between the Blues and the Israeli selection despite the difficult context.

A match increasingly rich in symbols. If Didier Deschamps and his players will aim to secure their qualification for the quarter-finals of the League of Nations, the public authorities will want to establish their authority and prove that the France-Israel match will take place without incident at the Stade de France. And the official stand will be well-stocked this Thursday in Saint-Denis.

As indicated by RTL and confirmed by BFMTV, François Hollande will attend the meeting. Although he was not initially expected to be there, the former President of the Republic arranged to attend, given the scale of the event.

Holland in the stands with Macron, Sarkozy and Barnier

The addition of the current deputy for the first constituency of Corrèze to the Stade de France basket reinforces the symbolic aspect of this meeting. In addition to him, Nicolas Sarkozy as well as Prime Minister Michel Barnier will accompany Emmanuel Macron and will go to the Dionysian enclosure to watch the match of the French team against the Israeli selection.

The Blues poster against Israel was the subject of calls for boycott and even cancellation from opposition elected officials and supporters of the Palestinian cause.

To avoid possible incidents, the public authorities have put in place an important security system. To accommodate the approximately 20,000 spectators expected at the Stade de France, the authorities will deploy 4,000 law enforcement personnel in the region.

As explained by RMC Sport on Friday, 2,500 of them will be around the Stade de France, or 26 mobile force units. The rest, around 1,500 police officers and gendarmes, will be responsible for ensuring security in transport and in certain areas of the capital. To the public security system, we must add the 1,600 stewards responsible for welcoming and ensuring the safety of spectators around and inside the Stade de France.
