EdF: Didier Deschamps fears the Euro-JO sequence

Regularly called up for the French team for two years, William Saliba (22 years old) is a regular in the French team group. Used 12 times since March 25, 2022, he remains behind Dayot Upamecano, Ibrahima Konaté or Lucas Hernandez in the hierarchy. The native of Bondy had a complicated match on September 12 against Germany (2-1 defeat). Still in the French group while the Blues challenge Germany this Saturday, William Saliba benefits from the confidence of coach Didier Deschamps.

At a press conference, the latter did not fail to welcome the contribution of the former Saint-Étienne and Marseille player: “he's having a good season, some very good matches, others a little less well. He is one of the best teams in the Premier League with Arsenal. William brings a lot of guarantees. He didn't have a huge amount of playing time with us. But because he does with his club and what he is capable of doing, he is called with us. There is competition but he is one of the four.
