The French national team has qualified for the 2026 World Cup and will undoubtedly be among the tournament favorites next summer. In a lengthy interview with L'Équipe, Aurélien Tchouaméni expressed his confidence in Les Bleus' chances of success in America.

"I'm confident because I know we've got everything it takes. Am I motivated by my role as a leader? Honestly, I just want to win. I don't want to go back to my club knowing that some guy out there beat us..." he revealed.

🚨 Aurélien Tchouaméni à propos de la COUPE DU MONDE : "J'ai juste envie de la gagner ! Je n'ai pas envie de rentrer en club et de savoir qu'il y a ce gars-là qui nous a battus.. Je suis confiant car je sais qu'on a tout ce qu'il faut." (@lequipe)

For the Real Madrid midfielder, winning the 2026 World Cup for Didier Deschamps would be the perfect send-off: "I joined the national team at 21. When he leaves, I'll be 26. I think every guy in the dressing room wants to give him that final gift. Then again, he's already won plenty (smiles)."
