Corentin Tolisso, captain of Olympique Lyonnais, remains determined to find the jersey of the French team despite their non-conqueror for the October rally for the Qualification matches at the 2026 World Cup. After the OL victory against Salzburg (2-0), the player told to Canal+ :: “” Whenever there is a list, I am interviewed and I don't know why, but I am told about that … I'm not there, it's like that. ” I have to work even more to be part of it. The most important thing is to work, to be the best on a daily basis. In any case, I will not give up, I will not let go. As long as there is hope, I will believe in it. »».

Despite two years complicated by injuries, Tolisso returns in shape with Lyon, with already 2 goals in 7 games, and a 2024-2025 exercise more than honorable for him. Didier Deschamps recognized the efforts of the 31 -year -old while explaining his choice: “He is one of the preselected. He may be called upon. He did very good things in Lyon after having also chained complicated years with injuries. But I see that in a little more distant future. From the moment I make some choices on young people who have less experience and playing time, I prefer to take this option. »» Deschamps therefore does not completely close the door to experienced players like Tolisso or Thauvin, but confirms that he is rather oriented towards a young and promising group.
