Didier Deschamps unveils his first list of the international season this Wednesday.
It's back to school. While the month of September is approaching, the French team has projects itself on its traditional end -of -summer rally, a usual date to launch a new international season. The coach Didier Deschamps communicates his first list of this exercise marked by the new qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup.
The Blues will face Ukraine (September 5) and Iceland (September 9). Two games not to be taken lightly. And for these important meetings, Didier Deschamps still had strong choices to make.
Water has flowed under the bridges from the Final Four of the League of Nations, but the last gathering had still allowed certain elements to score points, like Rayan Cherki or Malo Gusto. Rising values that will have the opportunity to confirm this new status in blue.

If the suspense is not really present for the guards and the defenders, it is the other sectors, the midfielder and the attack, which concentrated the most attention.
The environment and the attack on construction
Hugo Ekitike clearly has a card to play to take advantage of the troubled Randal Kolo Muani period. No surprise concerning Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué, Bradley Barcola or Michel Olise, all in good shape.
The Adrien case also fueled all the debates, but the strong status of the midfielder within the group was not called into question by Deschamps, despite the very agitated week of the player in the ranks of Olympique de Marseille.
