William Saliba,France,Austria

French Football Expert Julien Laurens explains why Arsenal star William Saliba could miss out of a place in the starting lineup for France

William Saliba is unlikely to start at centre-back for France in their Euro 2024 opening match against Austria .However, the 23-year-old has only made eight starts for France across his 15 caps and Laurens has hinted that this trend could remain at the Euros.

"And that William Saliba we'll see on the bench, he was excellent the other night in their draw against Canada, he started and played 60 minutes with Upamecano first and then Konate came on for the last half hour or so. "It will be a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-3-3," he said. "Depending on Griezmann's position but I think he will have a lot of freedom with the ball or without the ball in that midfield.

"Then you pick two between Upamecano, Konate and Saliba. I would pick Saliba and Konate, Deschamps will probably pick Upamecano ahead of Saliba, but it could change as well.
