The France national football team is preparing for its next World Cup match. William Saliba, the Arsenal and France defender, was questioned about his last club match, against Paris on May 30 in Budapest. He reunited with five players from the capital club in the France group. The Gunner discussed the Champions League final, lost on penalties, against PSG. And he confessed that the first 3 or 4 days after the final had not been easy. But with the Parisians, it's all joking at the table, he added. So he's already forgotten now. The France national football team is counting on him for the rest of the competition. William Saliba also discussed his fitness, specifying that he had been experiencing minor discomfort for several months. He gritted his teeth and the France team staff is managing him very well. The adrenaline in the game allows him to forget, he said. Many players play with discomfort, but he's not making excuses. The defender played the entire match against Senegal, but his case remains under surveillance due to recurring back pain. And he's ready to play the next matches with the France national football team. The team's manager, Didier Deschamps, is counting on him for the rest of the competition.
