The rise of the young Paris Saint-Germain striker opens the doors to the France A team.

Less than a year after his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain, Bradley Barcola is emerging as one of the rising stars of French football. The international Espoirs has established himself in the capital, to the point of becoming a regular starter in the team of the very confusing Luis Enrique.

Can this meteoric progression allow Barcola to join the France A team with a view to the Euro? For Bertrand Latour, the former Lyonnais has all the assets to apply. “ He is right to believe it, because the Blues staff necessarily follow what he does. When you are so young, a starter at PSG, one of the best at PSG even if there is competition up front and on the wings, you are inevitably a legitimate contender for the France team. He’s a player you really need to follow and who has every chance. »

“He transformed himself”

Another columnist for La Chaîne L’Équipe, Matthieu Dossevi is also optimistic for Barcola. “ He has reached a milestone. He arrived on tiptoe, he had difficulty, too shy. And then he transformed. When we see that (Ousmane) Dembélé is still summoned, at the moment he is not inferior to him, so he can very well apply for a place with the Blues. »

First elements of response in a week: Didier Deschamps will reveal the list of players summoned for the gathering in March, with a view to the matches against Germany (March 22) and Chile (March 26).
