Les Bleues are ready for the challenge of the World Cup under the direction of Hervé Renard.

Renard calls up a solid and experienced group for the French women’s team

Hervé Renard, the new coach of the French women’s team, has unveiled his first list of players for the upcoming international matches. As expected, Kadidiatou Diani, injured during the Champions League match with Paris Saint-Germain, is absent from the list.

The objective of this team is clear: to achieve a good performance at the World Cup to be held this summer in Australia and New Zealand. To achieve this, Renard has called up a strong and experienced group, with players such as Wendie Renard, Amel Majri, Delphine Cascarino and Eugénie Le Sommer.

The complete list includes three goalkeepers, nine defenders, seven midfielders and seven strikers. The list also includes new faces such as defender Sandy Baltimore, midfielder Aurélie Jean-François and striker Clara Mateo.

Renard’s List

Goalkeepers: Chavas, Peyraud-Magnin, Picot

Defenders: Bacha, Cascarino, Cissoko, De Almeida, Doucouré, Karchaoui, Lakrar, Perisset, W. Renard

Midfielders: Dali, Fazer, Geyoro, Jean-François, Le Garrec, Majri, Toletti

Attackers: Asseyi, Baltimore, Bussy, Cascarino, Le Sommer, Mateo, Sarr

This first list is the beginning of a long series of selections for Renard, who must now work with his group to prepare for upcoming international matches. Les Bleues have a great challenge at the World Cup, and they will have to work hard to achieve it.
