The big moment is approaching for the French team and those who will make it up. On May 14, Didier Deschamps will reveal the names of the twenty-five or twenty-five players he will decide to take with him to the 2026 World Cup. Never called up yet, Esteban Lepaul continues to believe in his World Cup dream. Problem: he has scheduled his wedding for June.
The Stade Rennais player, current top scorer in the French Ligue 1 championship with seventeen goals, has not given up mentally and thinks that Didier Deschamps could choose him to reinforce an already very full offensive sector. But if his football wish ever came true, he would have to disrupt his wedding plans.
Questioned this Sunday as part of a portrait dedicated to him in Téléfoot, the twenty-six-year-old man first confirmed the good news. “We have a wedding coming up in June. » Present at his side, his companion and future wife, Inès, was reminded of the fact that the ceremony would have to be canceled and postponed in the event of the selection of his sweet and dear one. Obviously not a problem for her.

” It’s not serious (laugh). It’s not serious. » And Esteban Lepaul adds with amusement:
“There are priorities. They won’t have to party with each other, it doesn’t matter. » The footballer still has a few weeks to wait before knowing how he will organize himself in June. If a small World Cup would clearly not displease him, his possible presence in Didier Deschamps’ group would constitute a real surprise.
In any case, he still has four Ligue 1 matches to play with Stade Rennais, again with a major objective; secure a place in the Champions League, and if possible direct. To do this, you will have to finish in third place in the ranking. For now, the Rennais are fifth, four points behind Lyon (3rd).
