Deschamps, a problem with Barcola?

Disappointed not to see Didier Deschamps use Bradley Barcola more in the France team, Bruno Salomon wondered if there was a problem.

After a first match of Euro 2024 during which he did not have a single second of play, Bradley Barcola will not take advantage of the reorganization made by Didier Deschamps after Kylian Mbappé’s nose injury, to start against the Netherlands Friday evening (9 p.m.). While waiting to know if the PSG player will come into play during the game, some are in despair at not seeing more of him.

This is for example the case of Bruno Salomon. The journalist openly regretted it on the channel The Team, a few hours before the match between the Blues and the Dutch. “

I just have a question for the followers (of the French team): is there a problem with Barcola? If you bring in Barcola, the kid is full of ball, and then you come and put Rabiot and you make him de-zone a little, you put him on the left side. Why not Barcola? »

Still a long way to go

While he blossomed last year at Olympique Lyonnais and confirmed the hopes placed in him this season with Paris Saint-Germain, Bradley Barcola was recently called up for the first time in France A team, although he initially seemed destined to play a little longer with Thierry Henry’s Espoirs.

Although he has undeniable talent and represents the future of French football, the player is currently still a little too low in Didier Deschamps’ hierarchy. This is at least what could explain the lack of eagerness of the French coach to send him to coal in a match as important as the one that the Blues will play this Friday. But if he were to bring him in during the match, Barcola knows that he will have to seize his chance, to perhaps gain credit and playing time.
