Get ready for a France team that's bursting with attacking flair! Didier Deschamps' squad is set to unleash a tidal wave of creativity this summer, and midfielder Adrien Rabiot can't wait to be part of it. With 59 caps under his belt, the veteran player knows what makes Les Bleus tick – and he's loving the team's new look.
“It's attack, attack, attack all the way!” was his initial thought when looking at the squad sheet. “But in a good way,” he adds with a grin. “I think it's fantastic that we have the players for this approach.”
The 'Fab Four' of Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé, and Rayan Cherki are just three of the nine forwards Deschamps has at his disposal – and Rabiot can't wait to see them unleash their magic on the world stage.
Rabiot's role is set to change in this new-look team. Rather than hogging the limelight himself, he's happy to take a back seat and let others shine. “We all have our roles to play,” he says with humility. “You have to be content with that.”
The key to success for France will be finding that elusive balance between attack and defence – something Rabiot believes is crucial in modern football. “You can't just rely on 11 players defending; you need everyone contributing,” he warns.
