Didier Deschamps has announced his France squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Azerbaijan (October 10) and Iceland (October 13). As expected, Kylian Mbappé headlines the list, continuing
to be the focal point of Les Bleus’ attack as they look to seal their place in the 2026 World Cup in the United States.
Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga makes his return after recovering from injury, providing Deschamps with fresh energy and versatility in the middle of the park. His inclusion is a welcome boost for the national team, particularly with a heavy schedule on the horizon.
Aurélien Tchouaméni, however, is absent. The Madrid midfielder will serve a two-match suspension after being shown a straight red card in the first-leg meeting with Iceland. His absence opens the door for other midfield options, while France will be hoping the balance provided by Camavinga can help soften the blow.
