Already qualified for Euro 2024, the Blues do not face a major challenge before facing the very modest players of Gibraltar on Saturday evening in Nice. But there’s plenty to take a little more than a quick look at.
The misfortune of Eduardo Camavinga, injured Wednesday in training, could bring happiness to Warren Zaire-Emery. The PSG midfielder has a serious chance of making his first selection in Blue, Saturday evening in Nice against Gibraltar.
This is perhaps a good reason not to miss this qualifying match for Euro 2024, especially since the PSG player would go down in the history of the France team.
In the starting XI or not, if he wore the Saturday jersey with the rooster, WZE would become the youngest player in A since Félix Vial, aged 17 years, two months and eleven days, on October 29, 1911.
Grand Slam goal
The hypothesis also arises for the other match on the Blues’ program in this November international window, Tuesday evening in Athens against Greece. Didier Deschamps and his players will be keen to complete the qualifying phase of Euro 2024 undefeated (six wins in as many matches so far).
Finishing among the best first in each group also serves to position yourself as a top seed in the draw for the final phase on December 2. Enough to interest the last two meetings of the Blues a little more.
