This Tuesday evening, facing a sick Germany without Hansi Flick, the France team will try to achieve a victory in this first international break of the season. Against Ireland last week, the Blues were solid, even if not transcendent, despite a typical XI aligned. But against the Nationalmannschaft, it seems that Didier Deschamps planned to rotate. Already in attack, Olivier Giroud is unavailable and Randal Kolo Muani is fit to play. But it is indeed in defense that the biggest surprises could take place.
According to the tactical implementation carried out on Monday, behind closed doors, by the coach of the France team, William Saliba should start as a starter. The Arsenal player shines in the Premier League, but has not worn the blue jersey since the defeat in Denmark (0-2) in the fall of 2022. More surprising, however, is the probable presence of Jean-Clair Todibo, the Nice. The latter was lined up alongside Saliba during training and could benefit from the potential absence of Dayot Upamecano, who was content to run around the field with a physical trainer according to The Parisian. If this is the case, France would therefore show up with an unprecedented William Saliba – Jean-Clair Todibo hinge against Germany. The former TFC player would thus play his first minutes under the leadership of Didier Deschamps. Answer this evening at 9 p.m. at Signal Iduna Park.
