France is currently the World Cup runner-up and will enter the upcoming Euro with high hopes of dominating Europe. This has been anticipated because, looking at Les Bleus' star-studded lineup, it’s easy to point out world-class stars like Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembele, Camavinga, Tchouameni, Saliba, etc. This generation is seen as the perfect replacement for the veterans who won the 2018 World Cup.
Among these names, Kylian Mbappe will undoubtedly be the most anticipated player, as the "2018 Golden Boy" has become a top global superstar with outstanding performances on the pitch. He is also considered a potential candidate for this season's Ballon d'Or. The French superstar can achieve this if he leads France to lift the Euro trophy this summer.
