Kalidou Koulibaly Chooses France, Awaits Deschamps’ Call-Up
Kalidou Koulibaly has made his decision: the Napoli defender will represent France at international level. Despite his impressive performances in Italy, where he is highly regarded at Napoli, Koulibaly has yet to receive a call-up from the French national team. However, he is hopeful that Didier Deschamps will soon give him the chance to wear the French jersey.
Koulibaly’s representative, Bruno Satin, highlighted the defender’s rapid rise in Serie A, noting that it was initially difficult to imagine him excelling so quickly in Italy. “The French federation is watching him, but we hope Deschamps will decide to call him up soon,” Satin commented. He also reminded critics that even Zinedine Zidane faced early criticism during his time in Italy, stressing the need for patience with Koulibaly.
With his impressive form at Napoli, Koulibaly is eager for the opportunity to represent France, a dream that could soon become a reality if Deschamps decides to include him in the squad.
