At 20, however, the goalkeeper should not have a first selection but simply complete the squad in training, behind Dimitry Bertaud (Montpellier) and Illan Meslier (Leeds). The regulations provide that the lists can be modified within ten days of the competition only for medical reasons.

If they win against the Dutch, Alban Lafont is expected to return with the Bleuets and then take over to Székesfervérvar on Thursday (June 3rd) for a semi-final (9pm) against Germany or Denmark. The final will take place on Sunday 6 June at 6 p.m. in Ljubljana (Slovenia). It is not yet known whether, in the event of qualification for the semi-finals, Etienne Green would remain in the group or not. One thing is certain: his vacation is postponed.
