There will perhaps be one more change than Didier Deschamps expected when he landed in Germany. The Blues coach had decided on a big rotation in a match, certainly prestigious, but nevertheless friendly. And it is in central defense that the change could be most significant. According to the tactical implementation carried out behind closed doors this Monday on the lawn of Signal – Iduna Park in Dortmund, William Saliba, the Gunner should start.
The probable composition of the Blues:
Maignan – Pavard, Saliba, Todibo ou Upamecano, T. Hernandez – Tchouaméni, Griezmann Camavinga – Coman, Kolo Muani, Mbappé (cap.)
The ex-Stéphanois had not worn the blue jersey since the defeat in Denmark (0-2) in the fall of 2022. But what was perhaps not expected is the possible absence in the Dayot Upamecano’s axis. The Bavarian did not train with his teammates and just ran around the pitch with a fitness trainer. In the starting team, it was Niçois Jean-Clair Todibo who played alongside Saliba. He could thus make his first selection for the French team. Fewer doubts on the left flank of the defense.
Absent the last two days after receiving a blow to the calf, Théo Hernandez completed the entire session. In the midfield, Real Madrid teammates Aurélien Tchouaméni and Eduardo Camavinga should be associated. As for Randal Kolo Muani, replacement against Ireland (2-0), he will be associated with Kingsley Coman and Kylian Mbappé. There should therefore be, if Upamecano gives up his place, six changes compared to Thursday’s match against the Irish.
