The French national team, known as Les Bleus, is in good spirits ahead of their entry into the Euro 2024 competition. On June 17, 2024, France will face Austria in their first match of the European tournament.
This match holds significant importance for Les Bleus, aiming to redeem themselves after their disappointing campaign in 2020.
The team can rely on their stars, including Kylian Mbappé and Antoine Griezmann. Marcus Thuram, who has had a standout season with Inter Milan, is also a key player for the French squad.
Recently, Thuram made headlines during a press conference when a journalist mistakenly referred to him as Mbappé. Thuram took the opportunity to humorously compare his looks to Mbappé’s, quipping, “I am more handsome. Unlike me, I do not look like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.”
As a reminder, Mbappé has been jokingly compared to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle character Donatello due to his appearance.
