Adrien Truffert stakes claim with Bournemouth rise and France call in Zidane’s first squad | OneFootball

Adrien Truffert has emerged as a reliable Premier League full-back for Bournemouth a year after his move, and he now features in Zinédine Zidane’s first France squad.

According to L'Équipe, the 24-year-old’s athletic qualities and selfless work without the ball give him a strong platform to press for a long-term place with Les Bleus.

Among seven Rennes academy products in Zidane’s initial selection, Truffert is not the most high-profile name. Yet he has carved out his place in the Premier League.

Bournemouth finished sixth in his debut campaign in England, an unexpected return that underlined his progress.

He trained with Les Bleus at Clairefontaine on Tuesday. Those traits could underpin a sustained international run.
