in turn, the clubs decide to retain their internationals

Free? Do not release? This is the question that arises within clubs which have internationals due to play matches outside the European Union during the break this month. While the Conmebol has decided to postpone its qualifying matches for the World Cup, allowing South Americans to stay in France, clubs still have to face other concerns, especially with African internationals. While PSG should not release Gueye, that Brest has decided to keep Mounié and Belkebla at the club, it is now Ligue 2 which is taking action. Some clubs will keep players for this break.

Guingamp retains three players, Niort and Clermont also retain

The EAG, as explained France Blue, has decided to keep three players in its squad. The concerned are Youssouf M’Changama (Comoros), Lloyd Palun (Gabon) and Frantzdy Pierrot (Haiti). The three players are retained by the club, while a trip to the selection would have imposed isolation on their return and therefore an absence in the league. This would not have arranged the En Avant, who is to play Troyes, leader of Ligue 2, on April 3 next to the Stade de l’Aube. On the Niort side, the Chamois have announced that they will retain Ibrahima Sory Conté (Guinea), Louis Ameka Autchanga (Gabon), Joseph Mendes (Guinea-Bissau), Yacine Bourhane (Comoros) and David Djigla (Benin). Finally, Clermont, in a good position in Ligue 2 with a current 2nd place, will keep Jodel Dossou, Cédric Hountondji (Benin), Jim Allevinah (Gabon) and Mohamed Bayo (Guinea).

Chamois Niortais Football has informed the football federations of Guinea, Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Comoros and Benin of his decision to keep the players called up for the March rallies.
