Present for the first time at a press conference with the French team, Maghnes Akliouche enjoyed this special moment. The young Monegasque, honored with his first summons with the A, told his emotions, his ambitions and the way in which he tackles this new challenge.
“”It is an honor to be there and make my first selection with the first team. I take advantage and try to enjoy and make confidence in the coach. Go up the steps of the castle even if I had set them up during the games with the A, it's special and really beautiful for me. This is my priority. I have an offensive profile, I want to be decisive, mark or pass the pass. It is my role just as being present defensively. When I was little, I played a lot in the city stadium, it taught me a lot technically. But no, I was not a balloon crunch, I already knew how to give it when I had to give it. My models? Henry, Zidane, Pogba too. He gave me a lot of advice and it helped me a lot. The World Cup is the best competition. This is my first selection, I want to give the best of myself and enjoy these moments»»
