It was N’Golo Kanté who presented himself at a press conference the day before the match, against Israel, at the Stade de France. It is therefore he who should wear the captain’s armband tomorrow evening for this meeting. But the 33-year-old midfielder did not want to confirm this information 100%. “I think it’s possible, there’s still some training missing. It’s very likely.”he said cautiously. But his national coach DIdier Deschamps immediately confirmed that he will indeed be captain.

Kanté captain, this would be the second time this has happened, for a player not used to being talkative. “I have my personality, I’ve been in the team for a while. My role is to pull the team up, to be focused, and to be a relay for the coach on the field”he explained, ensuring that others were also capable of speaking in the locker room.
