Present in front of the press before the last two qualifying matches for Euro 2024 against Gibraltar (November 18) and Greece (November 21), Didier Deschamps explained his list of 23 players selected by returning in particular to the state form of Randal Kolo Muani (24 years old). Since his arrival at PSG for 90 million euros, the young striker is not really indisputable within the Parisian attack and has scored three goals in eleven matches played.
A low performance, but Didier Deschamps wanted to defend it. “You don’t like him Kolo, you are too harsh with him. He is a central striker who likes it when there are spaces, because he has the speed. He can improve his game with his back to goal. But in terms of generosity, he does a lot. The analysis that many can make is that it is Paris and that the price of its transfer is important. You want everything, right away, but don’t forget where it comes from. At the 2022 World Cup, many people say “what is he doing taking Kolo”. There are higher demands, he has to digest too”. Big support from the Blues coach.
