Returned in extremis after the injury (muscle lesion of the right knee) and is a permanent fixture between the lines of the Belgium by Domenico Tedesco, Thomas Meunier hopes to earn a call to the bench against the France next Monday. The 32-year-old Trabzonspor full-back is working on his rehabilitation and the verdict of the tests will tell if he can do it, in the meantime he is waiting for the moment to train fully by the end of the week – he reports the Team – ahead of the match in Düsseldorf against Les Bleus.
Present at the press conference today, Meunier spoke about his opponents, favorites to win the Euro 2024 final and the difficulties that i Red Devils will find: “They are still a very good team. We do not hide it. They have exceptional resources and talent. Their wealth of sporting talent, not only in football, is sublime. But they came second. Like us, not everything was perfect. We will have every chance. It will be fantastic. But it is 50/50 if we show determination and enthusiasm.”
On the management of Kylian Mbappéwhich the Belgian player knows well having played together at PSG: “I have some ideas. I don’t want to reveal them in an interview. It’s exceptional. When you sign for Real Madrid, it’s because you’re a bit out of the ordinary. But the French team is not just Kylian. There is Dembélé, Griezmann, Barcola… The defense is also exceptional. The key will be mental. Then we will be able to bring them down.”
