For the March rally, Didier Deschamps did not call up N’Golo Kanté (32), although he was performing well with Al-Ittihad. The 2018 world champion has not been selected since June 2022. This means that youth have taken power, with examples like Eduardo Camavinga, Aurélien Tchouameni or even more recently Warren Zaire-Emery. Didier Deschamps justified this choice for Téléfoot.
“I took other options with younger players who also give satisfaction. I do not rule out, but I make sure to anticipate, to foresee the medium term”, launched the Blues coach. Nothing is done therefore.
