Former captain of the Blues Amandine Henry was summoned Tuesday by the coach Hervé Renard for the World Cup. At 33, the midfielder is experiencing an improbable resurrection: dismissed at the end of 2020 by former coach Corinne Diacre after a clash in the public square.
Henry has not played a single game since early March, first because of an injury, then because of a sick leave taken "for personal reasons" pending her passage from Lyon to Angel City, a Californian franchise she has just joined.
