Thierry Henry has decided. In the absence of his captain Warren Zaire-Emery, called up to the A, the coach of the French junior team decided to line up Ismaël Doukouré and Johan Lepenant alongside Lesley Ugochuwku for the Bleuets’ trip to Austria. Sparkling last month against Cyprus (9-0), the Monegasque Maghnes Akliouche will start on the bench.
No change in attack, where Rayan Cherki will be placed in support of the Elye Wahi-Arnaud Kalimuendo duo. In defense, it is Castello Lukeba who gets the armband.
The composition of Bleuets: Remains – Sildillia, Yoro, Lukeba, Belocian – Lepenant, Ugochukwu, Doukouré – Cherki – Wahi, Kalimuendo.
