Léo Pereira v Mbappé: France line-up to face Brazil | OneFootball

France have the significant absence of William Saliba, but can count on star Kylian Mbappé

France are already set for this Thursday’s (26) friendly against Brazil, the final FIFA international window before the 2026 World Cup. The current world runners-up have announced their lineup for the clash, which kicks off at 5 p.m. (Brasília time).

WHAT IS FRANCE’S LINEUP?

Maignan, Malo Gusto, Konaté, Upamecano and Theo Hernández; Tchouaméni, Rabiot and Ekitike; Olise, Mbappé and Dembélé.

Under Didier Deschamps, France will be without William Saliba, who is recovering from a left ankle injury. However, they will have a high-level attacking trio made up of Olise, Mbappé and Dembélé.

As a result, Brazil’s defense, which includes Léo Pereira, will need to be extra alert. The Flamengo center-back, in fact, is getting his first chance with the Brazil national team and will face a real trial by fire on his debut in the famous yellow shirt.

WHERE TO WATCH BRAZIL vs FRANCE?

The ball rolls for Brazil vs France this Thursday (26), at 5 p.m. (Brasília time), at Gillette Stadium in Boston, United States. The friendly will mark the debut of the national teams’ new kits: Brazil will play in their blue away shirt, while the French will wear light green.

Rede Globo on free-to-air TV, SporTV on pay TV, and GeTV on YouTube will broadcast the match. In addition, as usual, Coluna do Fla will bring all the information about the game, which involves Flamengo center-backs Léo Pereira and Danilo.
