There is no guarantee that he will travel to Poland and Sweden in January for the world championship. But Julien Meyer still has every chance. The Chartrain goalkeeper is in fact on the list of 35 players that the France staff recently provided to the International Federation. An enlarged group that will be reduced to about twenty units for the first training course, after Christmas.
Four other goalkeepers appear in this selection – Vincent Gérard (Saint-Raphaël), Charles Bolzinger (Montpellier), Rémi Desbonnet (Montpellier), Wesley Pardin (Aix-en-Provence) – and only three will be kept, upon arrival, from the coach Guillaume Gille.
Great start to the season
Selected seven times at the start of his career, Julien Meyer, 25, is gradually making a comeback and shines regularly in the Starligue. However, he comes out of a game with 13 saves in Istres on Thursday, and is in sixth place among goalkeepers for the number of saves (from 83 to 30% on average).
