Cherki starting at the World Cup? Deschamps responds

Author of a very good match and scorer against Ivory Coast on Thursday in Nantes (1-2), Rayan Cherki today has arguments to apply for a starting place at the World Cup. Around Kylian Mbappé, Michael Olise and Ousmane Dembélé, a 3-way battle could take place between the Manchester City player but also the Parisians Désiré Doué and Bradley Barcola. Guest in Téléfoot this Sunday morning, DD responded to the possibility of seeing Cherki in the French XI in the United States.

“If Rayan (Cherki) can be a potential starter at the World Cup? There are a lot of players who can legitimately see themselves or think that they will start, I have 26 players. Rayan had a very, very good match against Ivory Coast, I told him, he was efficient in what he knows how to do well, and efficient. But there are also other players who can have this (starting) status. Obviously, we will have to fight with the staff when there could be frustration among one or the other. We will need everyone, between those who will start and those who will have to return, it will not necessarily be the same each time.
