France World Cup Squad 2022: France team Final Roster
France, the current champion, will go to Qatar in 2022 to defend their title.
Didier Deschamps’ squad has only won one of their past six games, so they will need to perform well in Qatar to keep their World Cup ambitions alive.

FIFA World Cup 2022 France Team Preview
France will defend their World Cup title next winter in Qatar.
Les Bleus have not won the World Cup since beating Croatia 4-2 in Russia in 2014. France sought to look after its youth.
France hopes to break a curse and become the first side to win the World Cup twice in a row since Brazil in 1962. In four of the past five tournaments, Germany, Spain, Italy, and France were all eliminated in the group stage.
Our Prediction about France at FIFA World Cup 2022
France may have a terrific time if they get beyond the first two rounds of elimination, but the semifinals will be difficult.
France is in a strong World Cup group and should advance to the next round. Australia and Tunisia aren’t particularly dangerous to France, but since Denmark defeated Les Bleus in Paris, Les Bleus will be wary of them.
If France advances to the next round, they will face the second-place team in Group C, which may be either Poland or Mexico. Depending on who finishes second in Group A, the Group B winners and Group A runners-up will face either England, the United States, the Netherlands, or Senegal. France will face either Spain, Germany, Belgium, Brazil, Portugal, or Uruguay in the semifinals, regardless of what happens in their group.
If France does not win Group D, they will face Argentina in the quarterfinals. France will face the Netherlands, England, Senegal, and the United States, but not the Group A or B winners or runners-up. The quarterfinals are not very safe.
Didier Deschamps was chastised for switching the French team’s shape from 4-3-3 to 3-4-2-1, which was perceived as a lack of commitment.
Deschamps’ three-man defense, which he utilized to win the 2021 Nations League, has been causing him problems recently. Mbappe and Benzema can play in either Deschamps’ 3-4-1-2 or 4-4-2 systems. In a 1-0 loss to Croatia, he went with the second formation. N’Golo Kante, Adrien Rabiot, and Christopher Nkunku would be fantastic additions to the midfield to play alongside Camavinga if they are fit.
