Didier Deschams did not reveal much of his intentions, at least on the composition of his central hinge, during the last closed session, this Saturday, in Doha. If the twenty-four Blues participated in training, at the time of implementation, the coach associated Dayot Upamecano with Ibrahima Konaté in the axis of the defense of the team of supposed holders. Does this mean that Raphaël Varane will be on the bench? Not far from here. Spared the previous two days, the Manchester United player is doing better and it would be surprising if he did not appear in the starting lineup this Sunday in the World Cup final.
But with whom? Konaté, author of a very great performance in the semi-finals but who was sick on Friday , or Upamecano, sick at the start of the week and who seems to be recovering his means? The Bayern Munich defender seems to be leaving with a small lead.
Theo Hernandez and Adrien Rabiot back
On the left side, Theo Hernandez, who had received a blow on the knee against Morocco (2-0) , reassured Friday and should be able to hold his place. In the middle, Adrien Rabiot also finds her, alongside Aurélien Tchouaméni and Antoine Griezmann.

The Blues are preparing for all the hypotheses concerning the Argentina team. The team of substitutes was organized part of the session with a defense at 4 and another with a defense at 5, to anticipate the two possible configurations for Lionel Scaloni’s formation.
