This Thursday, Didier Deschamps will unveil his first list since the World Cup. A group that promises to be unprecedented after the recent retirements of four Blues executives, Hugo Lloris, Steve Mandanda, Raphaël Varane and Karim Benzema. Unprecedented especially at the position of goalkeeper, since behind Mike Maignan, to whom the position of number 1 is promised, the competition is tough. But the performances of Brice Samba would have convinced Didier Deschamps to select the doorman of RC Lens, after having regularly applied for it.
For two years, the benefits of Brice Samba are impressive. Great craftsman of the rise in Premier League of Nottingham Forest last season, 23 years after leaving it, the goalkeeper is now a starter RC Lens, and also appears there as a major player in the beautiful season of the Northerners, who has the best defense of League 1 with only 21 goals conceded, in 27 days and 10 clean sheets.
“It’s a dream to represent France”
At the microphone of RMC Sportsmid-February, the goalkeeper of the RC Lens, Brice Samba evoked the recent retreats of Steve Mandanda And Hugo Lloris, aware that this gave him a chance of being called by Didier Deschamps: ” If people talk about me in the media, it’s because my performances are quite good. Afterwards, be sure of it, it is not myself who will do my propaganda. It’s a dream to represent France. If I have the opportunity, it will be with a lot of joy, desire and determination. With the retirements of Hugo Lloris and Steve Mandanda, there is room freeing up, I’m not going to play the hypocrite… I’m going to do my best, give myself every weekend so that the coach can call on Me. I am very religious, and everything in its time and when it is time I will simply go. »

A dream come true!
And if we are to believe the information of the Parisian, Brice Samba should obtain satisfaction by being called by Didier Deschamps, this Thursday, for the March rally, the first since the Cup of world. The opportunity for him to prove that he can impose himself in the selection at the height of his 28 years.
