While concern reigns around Aurélien Tchouaméni for the end of the season, solutions to replace him in the French team are being considered. We do not yet know the duration of unavailability of the Real Madrid midfielder, but his stress fracture in the metatarsal, contracted Wednesday evening during the semi-final of the Champions League, does not bode well. An indisputable starter for almost three years and the 2021 Nations League, the former Monaco midfielder does not have a similar sentry profile. According to The Team, to accompany Antoine Griezmann and Adrien Rabiot, Didier Deschamps could choose Eduardo Camavinga. He is the one who has the most matches as a starter among the substitutes. Other avenues may also emerge.

Youssouf Fofana, number 4 in the hierarchy of the French coach, is the profile most similar to Aurélien Tchouaméni. More defensive than Eduardo Camavinga, he would be preferred to Warren Zaire-Emery, in difficulty during the last rally. In the list of 26 players, which will be announced in less than a week now, Didier Deschamps could choose six midfielders, plus Griezmann. In addition to the players already mentioned, Jordan Veretout and Mattéo Guendouzi, present in Doha during the World Cup, should be able to claim the group in Germany.
