Didier Deschamps has revealed his squad for the World Cup, with Lucas Hernandez, Steven N’Zonzi and Ousmane Dembele all making the cut.
In terms of major omissions, some will be surprised that Aymeric Laporte, Lucas Digne, Clement Lenglet and Geoffrey Kondogbia have been left out.
Unlike some other nations, France have already whittled the candidates down to 23.
France’s squad list:
Goalkeepers: Alphonse Areola, Hugo Lloris, Steve Mandanda.
Defenders: Lucas Hernandez, Presnel Kimpembe, Benjamin Mendy, Benjamin Pavard, Adil Rami, Djibril, Samuel Umtiti, Raphael Varane.
Midfielders: N’Golo Kante, Blaise Matuidi, Steven N’Zonzi, Paul Pogba, Corentin Tolisso.
Forwards: Ousmane Dembele, Nabil Fekir, Olivier Giroud, Antoine Griezmann, Thomas Lemar, Kylian Mbappe, Florian Thauvin.
