Returning faces and a newcomer!

Zinédine Zidane unveiled his second squad as France head coach on Friday evening.

For the Nations League matches against Italy (12/11) and Turkey (15/11), the Les Bleus coach continues to rely on the core he established during his first training camp, though this second squad features some important returning players and one newcomer.

Aurélien Tchouaméni and Warren Zaïre-Emery, who were rested in September, will return to Clairefontaine, as will Marcus Thuram and Malo Gusto, who were not selected for Zidane's first squad.

Pablo Pagis, the Paris FC striker, has earned his very first call-up to France's senior team! He is the huge surprise in this squad!

As a reminder, Ousmane Dembélé, Maghnes Akliouche, Jules Koundé, Maxence Lacroix, William Saliba, Manu Koné and Estéban Lepaul have not been called up due to injury.

The France squad

Goalkeepers: Maignan, Restes, Risser

Defenders: Diouf, Gusto, Jacquet, Kalulu, Konaté, Truffert, Upamecano, Yoro
