Euro 2024 is just around the corner, and it's set to thrill us this summer, from June 14 to July 14, just before the Paris Olympics! Didier Deschamps chose his team on May 16, who we hope will take us all the way to the final and bring home another cup. The competition kicks off for Les Bleus on June 17 against Austria. As usual, the public found out about the coach's choice on TF1's 8 o'clock news, and there were a few surprises!
As permitted by UEFA, a group of 25 players will be heading to Germany! Among the new selections is Bradley Barcola, a left-winger who plays for Paris-Saint-Germain and has proved his worth this season. And it's also the return of a player we haven't seen in Team France since June 2022: the unforgettable N'Golo Kanté, who delighted us in 2018. The latter plays in Saudi Arabia, which obviously didn't pose a problem for Deschamps, given his level.
