It is a surname that recalls good memories in French football. Friday evening, on the occasion of the spectacular friendly match against England in Lorient (5-3), Jérémy Jacquet celebrated his first selection with the French Hopes team.
This 19 -year -old defender, who went through all categories of young people (from U17 to U20s), has experienced a very good ascent for a few months. While he was loaned for the second season in a row in Clermont, where he managed to leave despite the difficulties of the Auvergne, the native of Bondy was recalled by Stade Rennais, who did not hesitate to pay 1 million euros to recover it.
Jacquet and Barry, the two new
Since his return, Jérémy Jacquet has chained the starts under the orders of Habib Beye. And it was the logical continuation to see him join the hopes. Friday evening, he entered at the end of the game (90th) in place of the Strasbourg Ismaël Doukouré, while Gérald Batic had opted for a central hinge Castello Lukeba-Christ Matsima.
Jérémy Jacquet is not the only player to celebrate his first selection with the hopes. This is also the case of Thierno Barry. Older, this 22 -year -old striker spent by Belgium and Switzerland is the great revelation of the season in Villarreal, with whom he scored 8 goals in 26 Liga games. These are two elements that apply to the Euro Hopes at the end of the season. While waiting better?
