France Espoirs’ team’s selector, Gérald Baticle, released the list of players summoned for the September rally. This list includes young talents from various French and European clubs, divided into guards, defenders, field circles and attackers. The upcoming deadlines for these young players are important: a friendly match against Serbia on 8 September, followed by a qualifying match for Euro 2027 against Luxembourg on 5 September. This selection reflects the pool of young talents that French football is capable of producing, and the hope this generation represents for the future of the national team.
Along with the composition of the team of France Espoirs, notable movements occur within French clubs. Wilfried Singo, AS Monaco’s central defender, is about to join Galatasaray SK for a four-year contract, with an option for a fifth year. This transaction, which is expected to bring back 30 million euros to AS Monaco, represents a significant financial opportunity for the club. In addition, several AS Monaco players, including Vanderson, Caio Henrique, Biereth and Golovin, were selected by their national selections, making Magnes Akliouche the 73rd French player to play in Monaco.
AS Monaco is now waiting to know its opponents for the chicken phase of the Champions League. The draw, which will take place in Monaco, will determine the teams with which the club will have to compete in the coming season. Monaco finds itself in hat number 4, although the performance of Bodo/Glimt made the situation more difficult. The full schedule of the group phase of the Champions League should be confirmed by 31 August, specifying the dates and opponents of each match for AS Monaco and the other French clubs participating.
