Defender of Atletico Luca Hernandez commented on his choice of the national team.
Luca Hernandez came to the football field in the match between the teams of France and Colombia in the 76th minute and thus debuted for the national team.
Hernandez preferred France to Spain, whose citizenship also has.
"I agree that Spain has given me everything. I even speak Spanish better than French, but France has not ceased to be my home country.
I'm only 22 years old and 18 of them I live in Spain, but I can not say that Spain is my native country, "says Hernandez Marca.
"Deschamps himself called me to find out about the situation, and I quickly decided. I am ready to defend the colors of France, and when the head coach of the national team calls you, you should not think long ".
Recall that the younger brother of Luke - Theo Hernandez - stands for Real Madrid and can also choose one of the teams.
