France National Football Team Line-up Changes

France head coach Didier Deschamps is making strategic changes to the team's line-up for the upcoming match against Poland. According to reports, Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konat is set to start, replacing William Saliba, who has been performing well in the previous matches. Deschamps believes that Saliba was more prepared for the earlier games, but now it's time for Konat to take the field.

New Faces in the Starting Line-up

In addition to Konat, PSG striker Bradley Barcola will also make his debut at the Euros against Poland. With Kylian Mbapp returning to the team, Barcola is expected to play on the left wing, while Ousmane Dembl will be on the right. This means that Marcus Thuram will be benched for this match, adding more depth to the attacking options for France.

France are yet to concede a goal in Germany, although their only strike so far came from an own goal from Austria's Maximilian Wber.

Les Bleus are one of the favourites to win Euro 2024 but they have got off to a mixed start in their opening two group matches.

Concerns Over Ousmane Dembl

There are concerns over the performance of Ousmane Dembl in the previous matches, as he has been ineffective on the field. Reports suggest that Deschamps is considering benching him for the game against Poland. Dembl was given the nod ahead of other key players but has failed to make an impact in the tournament so far.

Following the stalemate with the Netherlands, Deschamps expressed his confidence in the team's ability to improve their efficiency in front of goal. Despite the lack of goals from the forward line, including Dembl, the coach remains optimistic about their chances in the upcoming matches. With the return of key players and new faces in the line-up, France is looking to build on their early performances and secure a strong position in UEFA Euro 2024.
