On the occasion of this new French gathering, here are the players who have a lot at stake this September.Â
Three names, new or not, who have everything to prove in the coming days.Â
The big first test is against Ukraine tonight, at 8:45 PM.Â
Adrien Rabiot
Following recent events with OM, Adrien Rabiot has every reason to show both his commitment and talent if he is called to play.
With just a few months before the World Cup, missteps will not be tolerated, and it’s up to him to prove what he’s capable of with the Blues. A poor performance and the debates will be reopened, especially since the French pool in midfield is not exactly empty.
Khéphren Thuram
The player seems to have moved ahead of Mattéo Guendouzi and Warren Zaïre-Emery in the hierarchy. However, Ngolo Kanté has shown he is capable of returning with the French team, and Paul Pogba could prove convincing with Monaco.
Khéphren Thuram has every reason to seize an opportunity if he wants to continue his journey with the Blues.Â
Hugo Ekitike
Recently called up by Didier Deschamps, Hugo Ekitike has every opportunity to show that he can be a reliable forward.Â
Even if he doesn’t play during this gathering, his training and attitude will be closely watched by the entire staff, making what he offers crucial elements. A first with the Blues, it’s impossible for Hugo Ekitike to miss this chance.
