A week ago, Rayan Cherki was called for the first time in the French team ending speculation on a potential invitation with Algeria. At a press conference, he even explained that he had never had contact with the Fennecs. A version largely contradicted by Algerian journalists who believe that Cherki is not honest.
After training of the day, Said Benrahma, former Lyon, was questioned about the choice of his friend Cherki. And he was cash. “That's it, he's not with us, why you want me to talk about him. He left with the French team. Good luck to him but we focus on late Algeria. It is not for me to say if he denied or not. If someone told him or not. He said what he said, at the end. I already told him of course, I would have liked him to be with us but it is an individual choice, it comes from him. We haven't forced him, he manages his career as he wants. Pressure? I don't know at all, he didn't show me anything. He told me that he was not decided so here it is, it is an individual choice, good luck to him. »»
