French media: France will rotate in the final round of World Cup qualifying, and Chevalier is expected to make his national team debut

November 15 According to French media leparisien, France will rotate in the next game, and Chevalier is expected to make his national team debut.

France has qualified for the 2026 World Cup one round ahead of schedule. In the final round of World Cup qualifying, France will challenge Azerbaijan away from home. It is expected that France will rotate to allow some substitute players to get playing opportunities. French national team coach Deschamps has said: "Some players have played a lot of games, and I will definitely rotate them against Azerbaijan."

Currently, three French internationals have returned to their respective clubs early and will not participate in the final round of World Cup qualifiers. Among them, Mbappe has inflammation in his right ankle and needs to return to Real Madrid for examination. Another Real Madrid player Camavinga has discomfort in the hamstring muscle of his left leg, and Cone also returned to Rome early due to suspension due to accumulation of yellow cards.

In the context of rotation, goalkeeper Chevalier is expected to make his debut for the French national team. The 24-year-old Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper was selected for the French national team a year ago. This is his sixth time participating in the national team training, but he has never been given a chance to play. France versus Azerbaijan will be a good opportunity for Chevalier to play for the French national team for the first time.

In addition, players such as Konate, Theo, Gusteau, and Ekitic are also expected to start for the French national team in this game, and Emery and K-Thuram will also get playing time. The French national team has already traveled to Baku, Azerbaijan this Friday to prepare for the game. During the last pre-match training on Saturday, coach Deschamps will determine the starting lineup.
