Eduardo Camavinga
May 2026
Didier Deschamps left Eduardo Camavinga out of France’s 26-man World Cup squad, making him the biggest omission alongside Randal Kolo Muani, while introducing several new faces ahead of the tournament. Deschamps cited injuries, inconsistent form and intense competition in midfield as reasons for the decision. He instead opted for fresh options, including Jean-Philippe Mateta and Maxence Lacroix, with 13 players set for their first World Cup experience.
