1998 world champion with the French team, Bixente Lizarazu gave his strong opinion on the 2024 version of the Blues fashion show.

The latest gatherings of the French football team took on the air of fashion shows. When they arrive at Clairefontaine, between the moment they get out of their vehicle and the moment they cross the door of the castle, the Blues take the opportunity to show themselves in more or less extravagant clothes. While some remain extremely sober, others show much more imagination, like Jules Koundé or more recently Ibrahima Konaté. Given the media coverage of these sequences, everyone is now giving their opinion. Bixente Lizarazu delivered his.

This Sunday, the consultant of TF1 was questioned on the subject by his former teammate with the Blues, Frank Leboeuf, as part of the show “ Téléfoot“. LThe former Bayern Munich player appeared very divided, initially saying he was open to this kind of thing: “Frankly, it doesn’t take anything away from me. If it’s fun for them to do that, if they have a little competition among themselves…” But “Liza” pretty quickly tipped the scales to the other side. ” I don’t know. It moves the thing. The thing is, the comments aren’t actually great. And when you arrive in the French team, I think there is a status to have, so perhaps we should not exaggerate too much. »

The Blues shunned on television

The agreement is therefore given lip service by Bixente Lizarazu who has nevertheless put up some barriers for the future. And as the former left-back said, the comments have not necessarily been very positive, whether in the media or among the general public. While the French team and the style of play it offers are increasingly criticized and shunned by viewers (only 3.9 million during Israel-France), the atmosphere is not necessarily upbeat. laughter and some would like the show to be more on the field than on the stairs of Clairefontaine.

In any case, the Blues quickly replaced their wardrobe with their traditional football outfit, they who beat Israel last Thursday in the Line of Nations group match (1-4) and who will face Belgium on Monday (8:45 p.m.), a little over a month after beating him at home (2-0).
