She also confided her desire not to let go and to do everything to convince the coach to change her mind in the coming months with a view to the next World Cup in 2023 and the Olympic Games organized in Paris in 2024.

Amandine Henry continues to believe in her dream as a little girl

No question for the Lille woman to end her international career: “As long as I play football, I will always believe in this France team, it is always my motivation, it is the Holy Grail for a player. The France team is above all. I did not draw a line. I miss this team. I’m still motivated.”

Ready to work again with Corinne Deacon

For Amandine Henry, it’s out of the question to make it a personal affair: “Of course I can work with her. But in this type of reflection, I am not thinking of the coach but of the France team. Whether it’s for her or for someone else, I will always give my all, I will wet the jersey. You can never blame me for pretending . When you’re a pro, you give 100% whatever the context.”

I did things in order, we spoke before my intervention in the media

Corinne Deacon had criticized her player for having spoken in the media (in November 2020) before washing the dirty laundry with the family. A version rejected by the player: “It’s not true. We made meetings after the competition, not just two, with other executives, with the president. We said things to each other, just after the World Cup in June 2019, when taking stock. The idea was not to sink but to make the team progress. It was necessary to speak, it was necessary. That’s the role of a captain.”

Benzema’s mind, an example for me

“He (Karim Benzema, editor’s note) was not called up for several years and he came back even stronger. Mentally it is an example. He was put lower than the ground, and for me he knew how to bounce back like a boss. I never had the opportunity to talk to him, it would be very interesting to understand how he managed to bounce back, to put things aside and to come back so strong.
