France’s chances of success at the tournament rests largely on the shoulders of Kylian Mbappé, who has consistently delivered at the highest levels, but he is ably supported by a talented ensemble featuring Antoine Griezmann, Marcus Thuram, Kingsley Coman and others.
Furthermore, the formidable central defensive partnership of William Saliba and Ibrahima Konate provides a sturdy foundation, a hallmark of championship-winning teams, making a final berth a strong probability.
France’s coach also has a proven track record in major tournaments, leading France to second place finish in 2016 euro, World Cup glory in 2018 and another second place finish in 2022 World Cup. His tactical acumen and ability to motivate his players will be essential in the quest for les bleus third EURO title.
France are not without weaknesses — veterans Hugo Lloris and Raphaël Varane have departed the scene via international retirement, while Lucas Hernández is injured — but Les Bleus’ incredible depth means they still look formidable, and their tournament record since 2016 marks them out as the team to beat.
With their talent, experience, and team cohesion, France is well-equipped to retain their title and make history at UEFA EURO 2024. They are hungry for more success and want to make our French fans proud again.
