France at the Maurice Revello Tournament
The most successful nation with twelve titles, the French team is also the one with the most participations since they will take part in the Maurice Revello Tournament for the 43rd time in 48 editions since 1967. Placed in Group A with Argentina, Panama and Saudi Arabia, the Bleuets will have a tough task to reach the semi-finals and hope to conquer a trophy that they failed to win them since 2015. To do so, the U20 team led by Bernard Diomède, himself a former participant in the 1993 tournament, will have some important assets in their squad. France's history in the competition also shows how many Tricolores have revealed themselves on Provence grounds.
