Real Madrid pair to start together in final international break outing

Two headline members of the first-team setup at La Liga giants Real Madrid are expected to line out alongside one another on the international stage this week.

The players in question? Eduardo Camavinga, and Aurélien Tchouaméni.

Both Camavinga, and Tchouaméni, are of course currently on international duty with Didier Deschamps’ France.

In the country’s opening fixture of the break, the latter was afforded a starting berth, en route to an eventual 2-0 defeat at the hands of Germany.

Midfield partner Camavinga, on the other hand, was forced to make do with a spot on the bench, before being introduced to proceedings at the Groupama Stadium during the 2nd-half.

Upon France closing out their latest round of friendly fixtures in a meeting with Chile on Tuesday, though, Camavinga is expected to be utilised from the off.

That’s according to L’Équipe, who have today provided an insight into the XI expected to be depended upon by Les Bleus boss Deschamps tomorrow night.

Camavinga, it is suggested, will join Real teammate Tchouaméni and Monaco standout Youssouf Fofana in a midfield three.

France’s predicted line-up to face Chile can be seen in full below:

Maignan – Clauss, Konaté, Upamecano or Saliba, T. Hernandez – Camavinga, Tchouaméni, Fofana – Kolo Muani, Giroud or Thuram, Mbappé
