It was in a fairly tense atmosphere that Didier Deschamps arrived for the traditional match eve press briefing this Wednesday, a little over 24 hours before theFrench team against Israel within the framework of the League of Nations.
“ We have to make sure that it remains a football match, because it is one. There is a context that is very tense. It’s a reality unfortunately“, explained the Blues coach. “ I told you when I made the list, we cannot say that there is the most serene environment in the French team. This is not ideal. »
Marcus Thuram uncertain
Beyond this heavy context, Deschamps also has to deal with everyone’s little ailments, in a period where the calendar is increasingly busy with the European Cups. In great form with Inter Milan, Marcus Thuram is therefore uncertain. Bradley Barcola will return to training.
“ Marcus (Thuram) is going to train separately because he still has some feeling in his ankle. He seems uncertain. Bradley (Barcola) will resume because he has not trained since his last match (Sunday against Nice),” explained Didier Deschamps. A new update on Thuram will be made a few hours before the match. In the event of a loss, the Interist would certainly be replaced in the center by Randal Kolo Muani.
