N’Golo Kanté keeps all his chances of being included in Didier Deschamps’ list for the 2026 World Cup. The French national team midfielder would be in a good position in the coach’s hierarchy, ahead of profiles like Eduardo Camavinga. He could therefore be selected among the midfielders called up for the World Cup, competing notably with players like Aurélien Tchouaméni, Warren Zaire-Emery, Adrien Rabiot, and Manu Koné, in a particularly competitive sector.
Consultant for Telefoot and coach of Girondins de Bordeaux, Rio Mavuba sent a clear message to Didier Deschamps regarding the 2018 World Cup Champion. He declared: “When you have a World Champion N’Golo Kanté who accepts being on the bench, I think that everyone behind him has no say. We must accept everyone’s roles, that’s what makes a group strong to go far in a major competition. Kanté is exemplary. He must be on that list.” A strong statement in support of the French midfielder, still seen as a key element within the French team.
