A few days before the first preparation matches for the 2026 World Cup against Ivory Coast and then Northern Ireland, the Blues continue their rise in power at Clairefontaine. While waiting for the arrival of the 6 finalists of the Champions League, Didier Deschamps organized a particularly committed internal opposition this Monday. Among the players present, Robin Risser had a rather atypical session. The RC Lens goalkeeper, called up as the third goalkeeper for the selection, took part in the training meeting in an unusual role.
Due to a lack of full strength for this ten against ten opposition, the young French international was in fact used as an outfield player during the first period after The Team. Very active on the road, he nevertheless found a more familiar position after the break when Brice Samba took his place in the game. An unusual episode for Risser, who continues to discover the environment of the Blues and who should now benefit from a full group from this Tuesday with the arrival of the last internationals expected at Clairefontaine.
