Qatar 2022 World Cup: who are the naturalized players from France?
Qatar 2022 World Cup: who are the naturalized players from France?
Viernes 16 de Diciembre del 2022
Contrary to what many people think, the majority of the football players in the team directed by Didier Deschamps were indeed born in France, and there are only three born outside of its borders, although many of them, including Kylian Mbappé, have African origins.
In recent years, with the arrival of every World Cup or European Championship, the debate is the same: "Is it fair for France to play with so many naturalized players?". The criticism of the French national team often borders on racism. The truth is that the majority of players called up by Didier Deschamps for the Qatar 2022 World Cup were born and raised in France, contrary to popular belief. What happens is that a large number of 'Les Bleus' players are the children of immigrants, whose arrival in this country has increased noticeably in the last 30 years, especially from Africa.
