He is one of the surprises of this new list of Didier Deschamps. In view of the Final Four of the League of Nations which will start against Spain on June 5, the coach of the Blues made the choice to summon Rayan Cherki, but not only. Pierre Kalulu, also trained at OL, will know his first invitation to the French team. At a press conference, Deschamps just explained his decision to call the Turinois, still recalling that his summons was the result of a cascade of injuries.

Are you happy to see Rayan Cherki called in the French team?
