Nketiah, Alghamdi, Choinière… the Tournoi Maurice Revello graduates burst onto the international scene
Every international break is an opportunity for several talents who have played in the Maurice Revello Tournament to have their baptism of fire in the national team. The last few days have been no exception. Here's the lowdown.
Eddie Nketiah (England) : called up to the Three Lions squad last September but without making an appearance, the Arsenal striker benefited from the friendly match against Australia (1-0) last Friday to finally get his baptism of fire with England. Five years after winning the Maurice Revello Tournament, Nketiah becomes an England international!

Faisal Alghamdi (Saudi Arabia) : the 22-year-old midfielder made an eye-catching impact at the Maurice Revello Tournament 2023 (where he was voted man of the match against France), and in the last few days has been given his first taste of senior international football by Saudi Arabia coach Roberto Mancini in a friendly against Nigeria (2-2).

Liam Scales (Ireland) : now a key player at Celtic Glasgow, the solid 25-year-old defender played his first game for Ireland this month against Greece (0-2) in the Euro 2024 qualifiers.
Dimitry Bertaud (DR Congo) : after representing France at youth level, notably at the 2017 and 2018 Maurice Revello Tournaments, the Montpellier goalkeeper has switched his allegiance to Congo DR. The move came into effect on Tuesday during the friendly match against Angola (0-0), in which Bertaud started.

Samkhou Camara (Guinée) : what a fantastic story! After shining with the Mediterranean team at the Maurice Revello Tournament 2023 (he was voted man of the match against Mexico), the 20-year-old defender was immediately handed his first professional contract when he signed for Swiss D1 club Stade-Lausanne-Ouchy. The fairytale continues for Camara, who this month earned his first cap for Guinea's senior national team in a friendly against Guinea-Bissau (1-0).
