Jean-Charles Castelletto, the only FC Nantes player called up to play in the World Cup

If Alban Lafont learned on Wednesday evening that he was not on Didier Deschamps’ list of 25 players, the Cameroonian players of FC Nantes had the hope of taking part in the World Cup.

This will be the case for central defender Jean-Charles Castelletto, a regular starter in selection this year. On the other hand, big disappointment for Ignatius Ganago. The striker, a man in FCN form for 6 games (2 goals and 2 assists), was not called up to the list of 26 players who will challenge Switzerland, Serbia and Brazil in Qatar.

Regarding Ligue 1, Antoine Kombouaré received a three-game bench suspension for his comments after the draw in Nice (1-1), against the arbitration of Mr. Letexier. The Kanak technician had notably declared, regarding a penalty not whistled in favor of his team in the first period: “How do you want us to respect the referees, how do you want us to respect these guys? At halftime, when I see the pictures again, I tell myself that either I have shit in my eyes or (the 4th referee) he is a thug, a liar. »

The sanction will take effect on the return from the World Cup and will not prevent Kombouaré from taking a seat on the bench for the crucial match against AC Ajaccio on Sunday (3:00 p.m.).
