A few hours before Didier Deschamps’ big announcement, the vagueness still remains around the list of Blues who will leave for Qatar. According The Parisiana few small surprises cannot be ruled out.
For supporters of the French team, the suspense is about to end. Guest of the Journal de 20 heures on TF1, Didier Deschamps will reveal this evening the names of the players selected to compete in the World Cup which will begin on November 20th. First unknown: the size of the group, 24, 25 or 26 players? According to RMCthe 26-player option should be retained, which would include some injuries close to remission like Mike Maignan.
If the presence of certain executives like Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappé, Hugo Lloris or Karim Benzema is beyond doubt, other suitors are not yet certain of their fate. If the surprise will be magnificent for some, others are obviously likely to be disappointed. According The ParisianJonathan Clauss could in particular bear the cost of these last services.

Not really successful with Olympique de Marseille in recent weeks, the former defender of Racing Club de Lens should not be called up, according to The Parisian. In the past few hours, The Team had unfortunately for the latter part of the same trend. The 30-year-old had yet been invited to the last gathering of the Habs last September.

Dayot Upamecano should however have his ticket to Doha. The Bavarian had however not really been unanimous during his last appearances with the jersey hit by the Rooster. Didier Deschamps obviously did not take this into account when he made his last choices. As RMC announced earlier this week, Olivier Giroud will also be traveling to Qatar. His excellent start to the season with AC Milan allowed the 2018 World Champion to win the national coach’s favor once again.
On the defense side, Ferland Mendy would be in a good position, which would not suit Lucas Digne. Finally, RMC understands that the door is not completely closed for Konaté.
