Why It Matters
Zinédine Zidane took up his duties as coach and faces a series of withdrawals from the Blues squad.
This will eventually become a bad habit. Forced to have to deal with the uncertain state of form of Kylian Mbappé who did not train on Wednesday morning and should be withdrawn from challenging Italy on Thursday at San Siro, Zinédine Zidane summoned Senny Mayulu (20 years old, 0 selection), who must travel with the Blues in the afternoon to Milan. The Paris SG midfielder, who can play as an attacker and was called up by Gérald Baticle with the Espoirs for this position, will discover the A in the coming hours.
After the crimes of Kalulu, Thuram, Tchouameni, which are added to those known by Dembélé, Koné, Koundé, Lacroix, Lepaul and Akliouche, “ZZ” risks asking advice from Fabien Galthié, also bothered by a massacre in the ranks of the XV of France. Kumbedi, Kroupi and now Mayulu are called up with zero selections for the France team. Zinédine Zidane continues his facelift since taking office.
Mayulu, a versatility appreciated by Zidane
Senny Mayulu (9 matches, 4 goals, 2 assists in all competitions) is rewarded for his performances with the double European champion. Valuable when called upon by Luis Enrique, the Parisian has a technical palette and versatility which count in the mind of the new coach. The uncertain state of form of Kylian Mbappé will have smiled on Titi of PSG. It's up to him to take advantage of it.
