W3ndie Renard, Grace Gey8ro… Les Bleues have chosen a rather particular spelling to announce the number that will adorn their jersey during the World Cup in Australia (July 20 – August 20). In a short video broadcast by the Twitter account of the French women’s team, each of them poses, introduced by their “new name”.

Eugénie Le Sommer will wear her emblematic number 9 for her return to official competition in the French team after two years of absence. Recalled by Hervé Renard, the 34-year-old Lyonnaise had had a resounding return to Les Bleues in a friendly preparation match for the World Cup, with a double in Clermont-Ferrand against Colombia (5-2).
Les Bleues have arrived in Australia
Sakina Karchaoui (PSG) will wear number 7, and Kadidiatou Diani, who has just announced his departure from Paris Saint-Germain, will wear number 11. Before flying to Australia, the players of the France team had posed with the shirt of their first club. A great way to pay tribute to their footballing roots.
Les Bleues landed this Sunday around 4 p.m. (French time) in Melbourne. They will be able to follow their preparation on the spot for this World Cup, full of ambitions.
Amandine Henry, injured, had to withdraw and will not participate in the tournament. She was replaced by Manchester United central defender Aïssatou Tounkara.
Hervé Renard’s players won their first preparation match on Thursday in Ireland (3-0). A preparation match against the host country, Australia awaits them on the 14th in Melbourne before starting the competition on July 23 against Jamaica.
