The Blues shocked! A huge surprise from Deschamps in the list for Euro 2024?

The coach of the France team could make a very strong choice in his list for Euro 2024.

It is always a highly anticipated event, in even years, as a tipping point towards the great adventure of an international competition. Once again, Didier Deschamps will announce his list for a major tournament in the TF1 television news. On Thursday May 16, the general public will know the names of the players selected for Euro 2024.

But with less than a month to go before this important date, a few details need to be taken into account. The first concerns the logic of Didier Deschamps, who traditionally relies on the experience of the group and has often repeated during the last gatherings that the possibility of shaking up this France group was low.

A very strong choice from Deschamps

If the hypothesis of seeing a new kid arrive at the last moment cannot be ruled out, this scenario remains unlikely in the current state of things, although Bradley Barcola clearly has a card to play for this European Championship of nations.

The other important point concerns the number of players potentially retained. Didier Deschamps could retain 26 players for the Euro. A parameter that would change the situation for certain elements whose physical state raises questions. L’Equipe indicates this Thursday that Kingsley Coman, currently on the sidelines and engaged in a race against time to be operational for the Euro, could be part of the list without having returned to official competition before May 16, at the image of what Deschamps did for Raphaël Varane in Qatar. A strong and risky choice which therefore enters into the thinking of the Blues staff.
