Serge Aurier’s exceptional performance in Ligue 1 earned him a spot on the pre-selection list for the Brazil 2014 World Cup, making him the only African player in the Ligue 1 eleven at the end of the season. His inclusion came at the expense of Emmanuel Eboué, a decision justified by the coach of the Ivorian national team, Sabri Lamouchi.
Lamouchi expressed his confidence in Aurier, emphasizing his importance in the team’s plans and his capabilities as a right-back. He praised Aurier’s skills and predicted that he would not only perform well for the national team but also emerge as one of the standout full-backs in the World Cup.
