Les Bleuets did a fine job of the Under-21 Euro 2013 qualification campaign and the future is indeed looking good for the youngsters who will have a big say in the senior side in the coming years
The French national side is indeed budding with talent which gives good headaches to the national team manager Didier Deschamps. However, in the background, without making much noise, Erick Mombaerts’ is working with the Under-21 side where talent is oozing.
Many players have come into the fray with their exceptional talent. Playing in the Ligue 1 for their respective clubs on a regular basis does not hurt either which is probably the main reason why former national team manager, Raymond Domenech feels that
the side can win next year’s Under-23 European Championship which is hosted by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Israel-c2925.
“Since I left the Espoirs, the team has got even more potential. They have the means to be European champions. These are players who have lived in Ligue 1, and have a level of experience in good clubs. When I see them, I say to myself that I would go back
15 years ago and become the coach of the espoirs.”
And, Domenech’s excitement cannot be questioned as the youngsters have indeed done a great http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 in recent months.
The youngster began their qualification campaign with a 3-0 win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Romania-c2990 by the same scoreline.
In the reverse fixture in Nantes, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Slovakia-c3007, Les Bleuets won all of their games of the qualification campaign and many players
really caught the eye.
Bettor.com now takes a look at a few players who have a great future with the senior side if they carry on doing what they have been doing in recent months for club and country
Raphael Varane
At the age of just 19, the defender is playing for one of the biggest clubs in world football in the shape of Real Madrid. Jose Mourinho is a big fan of the native of Lille and has a bright future ahead of him. Although he is yet to play for the senior side,
Varane’s performances for the juniors and for Real Madrid clearly mean that the youngster will be the senior side’s mainstay for years to come.
Ali Ahamada
The 21-year-old Toulouse man is one of the finest goalkeepers in the country at the moment. Great reflexes ability to marshal the defence means that the Martigues-born player could even be a future captain for his national side.
Clement Grenier
Raymond Domenech describes the Lyon academy product as, “There’s something more in his game and he can create things. For me, he breathes football.” Indeed, Grenier has become a huge presence in Lyon’s midfield and is another reason why http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Yoann-Gourcuff-c37416 may
never succeed with Les Gones even if he stays injury-free.
Wissam Ben Yedder
The Toulouse starlet has already found the back of the next six times for Alain Casnaova’s side so far this season and is definitely destined for greatness. At such a young age, Yedder has shown a lot of mental strength to hold his own against physical opposition
which means that in the future, the youngster could be a regular striker partner for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Karim-Benzema-c20350 for the national side.
