June 11, 2019. This is the last trace of Florian Thauvin in the French team. That evening, the world champion had allowed the Blues to win 4-0 against Andorra thanks to a goal and an assist. Was this the last page of his history in selection? His last years at Tigres (Mexico), then at Udinese, seemed in any case to support this theory, while at the same time, the competition continued to push for the Blues. But at the start of this season, the ex-Marseillais is returning to the heights that were once his. Author of 3 goals and 1 assist in Serie A, Thauvin allows Udinese to shine at the top of the Championship standings. And for his former coach Rudi Garcia, his great performances, provided they are consistent, could allow him to reapply for a place in Didier Deschamps’ group in the long term.
“If he can get back to his best level? Yes, and I really hope that Udinese will be able to develop a football that will allow him to do that. When I had him, he was a player who always knew how to be decisive. In general, he was capable of scoring at least 10 goals and making 10 assists, and that, with both feet.retraces the former OM coach in a podcast of The After. A return to the Blues possible? In any case, he has a lucid analysis of the situation: he knows that he must be decisive, he is lucky to be in Serie A, a championship that is watched. It is up to him to continue to carry Udinese, and at that point, of course, he will be able to apply again for the French team even if there is competition (…) I am convinced that he is a player who still has a future to play in important competitions. And he is a creative, his profile is a little lacking in the French team. We also talked about it during the Euro when Antoine Griezmann was a little less good, and we were lacking a little creativity.»
