Zinedine Zidane unveiled his second list as coach of the France team this Friday. Among ZZ’s many decisions, one choice particularly attracts attention: Pablo Pagis (23 years old). The Paris Football Club attacking midfielder will receive his very first call-up to the Blues in the coming days, taking advantage of Maghnes Akliouche’s package. The reaction of the principal concerned was not long in coming.

It was on the Paris FC bus, which was traveling to Auxerre for the match between the two teams in Ligue 1, that Pagis learned of his call-up to the Blues alongside his teammates. The former Lorient player was warmly congratulated by his teammates as well as his coach, Liam Ronsenior. Arriving this summer at the Ile-de-France club, Pagis has two goals and an assist in nine games this season.
