Didier Deschamps unveiled the list of 24 players summoned for the quarter -final round of Nations League against Croatia. A list in which does not appear N'Golo Kanté (al-Ittihad). And here is why. “I chatted with him. He has a little muscular concern so I made the decision not to take it. It also leaves the opportunity to other players who have less experience to have playing time on these matches ”said Deschamps, before evoking that of Corentin Tolisso.

“Coco, I'm happy for him and his club, but especially for him. I know that he is attached, like many, by what he has been able to live through the successes that we knew. There are players who were there, who responded. The door is not closed. He returned to the pre -list. I do not need to have articles from each other to know that he is attached to the French team. I have choices to make at the time compared to players who were there. »»
