Les Bleus will travel to the United States to face Brazil (March 26) and Colombia (March 29).

Discover below the names of the 26 players called up for this final rehearsal before the 2026 World Cup.


Goalkeepers: L. Chevalier, M. Maignan, B. Samba.

Defenders: L. Digne, M. Gusto, L. Hernandez, T. Hernandez, P. Kalulu, I. Konaté, W. Saliba, D. Upamecano.

Midfielders: E. Camavinga, N. Kanté, M. Koné, A. Rabiot, A. Tchouaméni, W. Zaïre-Emery.

Forwards: M. Akliouche, R. Cherki, O. Dembélé, D. Doué, H. Ekitiké, R. Kolo Muani, K. Mbappé, M. Olise, M. Thuram.


Having been rumored to be left out of the squad since being benched at PSG, Lucas Chevalier is ultimately present in the coach’s list. Robin Risser (Lens) and Jean Butez (Como) are therefore left out.

In defense, Pierre Kalulu makes his return to the group after Jules Koundé’s injury with Barça.

Another surprise, this time in attack: Randal Kolo Muani is called up despite his poor form at Tottenham. The striker is likely benefiting from Bradley Barcola’s injury.
