Deschamps: The national team door was never closed to Rabiot he played well at Juve

In the latest edition of the French national team squad announced a few days ago, Rabiot's name is prominently listed, and the Juventus midfielder will follow France to the European League match in early September. It was also the first time that Deschamps had been called up to the national team after Rabiot refused to be a substitute for France's World Cup squad.

In an interview with French Football magazine, Deschamps spoke about his decision:

"I ask myself the question: What's the best thing for the team? What are the interests of the team? How can I win the next game? Adrien (Rabiot) has done quite well at Juve, contrary to what many people think, and I have not excluded him from the national team. ”

"He played best when the midfield was made up of three, appearing on the left or right, not in the core area. In addition, like Paul (Pogba), if he is allowed to play a double back in front of the back line, it depends on whether he can adapt. ”

"He scores less and has a slightly less decisiveness than Paul, but his ability to deliver the ball forward is equally outstanding. He has a good enough level of skill. ”
