Matvey Safonov - Russia
Matvey Safonov played in the first of his country's two friendlies this month, a 1-1 draw with Peru, but took no part in the second encounter, a 2-0 defeat to Chile.
Senny Mayulu - France's U21s
As part of Les Bleuets' bid to qualify for the 2027 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, Senny Mayulu was named in France's starting XI for a 1-1 draw with Switzerland before coming off the bench in a 1-0 win over the Faroe Islands. With four games played and two in hand over their closest competitors, Gérald Baticle's men are currently top of Group C.
Quentin Ndjantou - France's U19s
Just like Paris Saint-Germain U19s' defender Dimitri Lucea, Quentin Ndjantou was called up by the head coach of France's U19s, Bernard Diomède, for the first round of qualifying for the 2026 UEFA Under-19 European Championship, which will take place in Wales next summer. Having started off with a dominant 4-0 victory over the Faroe Islands, Les Bleuets then ran out 2-1 winners over Bulgaria before beating Hungary by the same scoreline, which saw them finish top of their group and thereby make it through to the second and final round of qualifying.
