France coach Didier Deschamps has announced his preliminary squad for the upcoming European Championship, including some notable inclusions and exclusions.
One of the surprises in the squad is the return of midfielder N'Golo Kanté, who has been performing well at Al-Ittihad in the Saudi league. Kanté, a key player in France's 2018 World Cup-winning team, has regained his form and fitness, prompting Deschamps to include him in the squad.
