Deschamps' list: without Griezmann, surprises galore ?

Continuation of the League of Nations from October 10 for the French team including the delicate confrontation with Israel. For this gathering, Didier Deschamps will have to make some changes to his list on Thursday, October 3.

After the shock of Antoine Griezmann's retirement announcement, the French team will have to do without its legendary number 7. While he was announced in the list, his departure will automatically open the door to a new player. This gathering with two matches on the program, Israel on October 10 in a boiling context and Belgium on October 14, is already decisive after the defeat against Italy on the first day.

So which players for this gathering ? Kylian Mbappé, initially announced as out for 3 weeks, but present in the Champions League with Real, should be present. Christopher Nkunku could make his return to the Blues, 15 months after his last selection and his multiple injuries. If Michael Olise should be called up again, Kingsley Coman could also make his return to the French team squad. Monegasque Maghnes Akliouche (22 years old) and Florian Thauvin (33 years old), not called up to the national team since 2019, have been selected and could create a big surprise. In midfield, Adrien Rabiot, who has found a club with Olympique de Marseille, should make his return to the national team. In defense, we will follow the presence or not of Benjamin Pavard, sidelined at the last gathering.

Here is Didier Deschamps' latest list at the gathering last September, with Antoine Griezmann's latest.

• Goalkeepers: Mike Maignan, Brice Samba and Alphonse Areola
• Defenders: William Saliba, Ibrahima Konate, Dayot Upamecano, Jules Kound, Theo Hernandez, Ferland Mendy, Ferland Mendy, Wesley Fofana.
