Deschamps’ Euro list: cascade of packages, surprises already announced

Deschamps Euro list cascade of packages surprises already announced

The list of 26 players for the Euro will be revealed in a few days.

The list ofEuro football will be revealed this Thursday, May 16 at 8 p.m. on TF1. Didier Deschamps will have to deal with headaches and several forfeits. The first is obviously the left side and central defender of PSG, Lucas Hernandez. Already injured during the World Cup, the Frenchman will miss a second competition in two years. Good news all the same for Didier Deschamps, UEFA has validated a list of 26 players, which therefore offers other possibilities to replace Lucas Hernandez. Ferland Mendy, absent during the last friendly matches, has returned and should regain his place in the France group. More generally, defense is the biggest project. If in the center, players like Dayot Upamecano and Ibrahima Konaté, William Saliba are guaranteed to be there, the first two are not living the best period of their career. For the right side, Malo Gusto, author of a good first season at Chelsea, could be one of the surprises even if Jonathan Clauscalled up in the last rallies, should be this full-back.

In the middle, Aurélien Tchouaméni, victim of a metatarsal fracture, is uncertain. In the middle, Rabiot, Griezmann, Fofana, Camavinga, Zaire-Emery should follow, but the last two places are still questionable. Veretout and Guendouzi could be called up. In attack, Nkunku, Kolo Muani, Barcola and Tel could compete for the last places.
