French team: Didier Deschamps is preparing several surprises for his list

A month after his controversial absence with the Blues, Kylian Mbappé is back. This Thursday, Didier Deschamps announced his list for the two matches against Israel (November 14), and Italy (November 17), once again without his captain, without the Blues coach specifying the motivations for this choice. Combined with Aurélien Tchouameni’s package, DD will have to find a new captain for this gathering. But obviously, he also did not want to give any clues about his identity.

“You will know Thursday for the first match, or perhaps Wednesday if I decide to send the captain to a press conference since it will not be Tchouaméni. This gathering will also make it possible to empower other players and trigger a dynamic. With the distributed playing time, it can go against sporting results, we will try to ensure that this is not always the case. » Among the candidates who seem to stand out: Jules Koundé, Mike Maignan, and even N’Golo Kanté.
