At the age of 31, Rod Fanni is set to make a return to the French national team. The Marseille full-back, who has earned 5 caps for the national team, received a call-up from coach Didier Deschamps on Monday to join the French squad at Clairefontaine.
Fanni is expected to replace Mathieu Debuchy, who sustained an injury during a Premier League match on Sunday. Rod Fanni shared the news on his Facebook page with a touch of humor, stating, “Precipitous departure, after the crowing of the tricolor rooster, duty calls! LOL.” The post included a photo of him preparing to head to Clairefontaine, expressing a sense of unpreparedness for the sudden call-up.
