😳 Almost €300m worth! The star XI Deschamps leaves at home
When it comes to talent, the French Football Federation is second to none. Indirectly, that was also reflected in yesterday’s World Cup squad announcement.
Because even from the players Didier Deschamps left out yesterday for the final tournament in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, you could put together an absolute top XI. We’ve put something together for you.
According to “Transfermarkt.de,” Camavinga, Nkunku, Kolo Muani and co. have a combined market value of 273 million euros.
That makes this XI almost as valuable as Croatia’s entire 26-man squad (283.30 million euros). In particular, the omissions of Real star Camavinga (29 international caps) and Lyon captain Corentin Tolisso (28 international caps) left many fans seriously puzzled.
But Lepaul, who has already scored 20 times in the current Ligue 1 season, and Juve star Khéphren Thuram would also certainly have deserved a call-up.
With this squad, a World Cup quarter-final place would almost be the bare minimum, wouldn’t you say?
