Olympique de Marseille midfielder Jordan Veretout has been called up to Didier Deschamps’ list for the 2022 World Cup.
Olympique de Marseille midfielder Jordan Veretout will be traveling to Qatar to compete in the World Cup with the France team! With five selections on the clock for a tenure, the presence of the midfielder is undoubtedly due to the absence in the midfield of Paul Pogba and N’Golo Kanté but also to a versatility and a different profile from the other midfielders retained by Didier The fields. Jordan Veretout is not a novice in Blue but his selection appears to be the real surprise of the list of the Blues coach, the player’s performances with the France team have never really been resounding and the environment is aware of it as he explained it to West France in October 2021.
“I would have liked it to have happened differently. I know I can do much better and I’m showing it with Roma (his club at the time, he who now plays forOM Editor’s note). Against Bosnia, it was a first match with the France team and, we can say what we want, it’s always delicate, more stressful. The urge to do too well can lead to restraint. I found my second return to Ukraine more consistent, even if I still have to raise my level of play.” Asked a few days ago at the microphone of Prime Video after an OM match, the former Nantes player believed in his lucky star and in his selection. “Yes, I believe in it. I am a footballer, I have already been called up. Now I give everything on the pitch and it’s up to the coach to make his choices. But of course I believe in it.”
Jordan Veretout already under the spell of the France team
Jordan Veretout has already been selected for the France team. In an interview for West Francethe French expressed his emotion after his first selection with the Blues in 2021. “The first emotion was the previous Thursday, at 2 p.m., when the list was announced. The arrival at the castle, it was also very strong. But to hear my first Marseillaise, it was just huge, magical,” he said.
With the France team, for Jordan Veretout, “every moment is increased tenfold. Every second, something happens. Playing for your country is the most wonderful thing that can happen to a footballer. A great pride. We play football to experience these emotions. When we have experienced it once, we don’t want it to end.” Since then, the Frenchman has had five selections.
