While it was said that the French technical committee evaluated the potential of the young footballer at the highest level and would position him as an important part of the future of French football, the 19-year-old young starlet had a big shock.

According to L'Equipe; Sidiki Cherif and Mamadou Diakhon, who were invited to the squad, will not participate in the France U21 National Team camp.
