President of the French Football Association: France will have two friendly matches next March and hope to travel to Qatar to compete

According to le Gragé, president of the French Football Association, the French team will play two friendly matches in March next year, hoping to go to Qatar to compete.

FiFA and its president, Infantino, have a simple plan, and for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar to start smoothly, they plan to host a mini-tournament in Qatar next March, consisting of multiple European national teams. As World Cup winners, France are considered part of this luxury plan.

In response, the president of the French Football Association, Legrae, said: "At present, this has not been done. There will be two friendly matches in March next year and we are in discussions with Qatar and if it does not work out, we will have friendly matches in France and not far from France, but there will definitely be two matches anyway. ”

Theoretically, France should travel to the host country of the World Cup to participate in the tournament, but because Italy and Portugal failed to qualify directly for the World Cup, it is unclear whether this friendly in Qatar will come true.

Le Grahé said: "I prefer Qatar, it's always fun to go and see, we've qualified for the World Cup and can prepare a bit in advance. The difficulty is that Italy and Portugal have also been invited, but now they are not directly qualified for the World Cup. FIFA and Qatar are looking for new opponents. ”
