This is the big surprise of Didier Deschamps’ list. N’Golo Kanté will indeed be part of the group of 25 players called up for Euro 2024 in Germany. Now far from Europe, the 33-year-old midfielder is based in Saudi Arabia, at the Al-Ittihad club, the same team as Karim Benzema. In Jeddah, the Frenchman continues his matches. The former Chelsea midfielder played 28 of 32 league games, all as a starter. The native of Paris is therefore in great physical shape, as reported by those close to him.
“He’s in top form, honestly. He did twelve, thirteen kilometers with high humidity, put him in Europe, you’ll see! » assured a member of his entourage to The Team. A close friend also explains that the 2018 world champion had a feeling of unfinished business in the selection. The “favorite” of the Blues “was keen to complete the circle, it’s the only title he’s missing (the Euro)”. Now we need to know what role N’Golo Kanté will have in Didier Deschamps’ group.
