Francis Coquelin wishes to play for France senior team


France Coquelin says it would be amazing to play for the France senior team ahead of Euro 2016. The 24-year-old won the Uefa European Under-19 Championship in 2010 but has not represented his country since making his final under-21 appearance in 2012. Continue after the cut

Speaking to the club official website, Coquelin said:

"Every player wants to represent their country and the Euros in France is something massive for any French player to be a part of. To be part of the squad would be amazing but there are loads of things to do first and the most important thing is Arsenal. If I play well here maybe I will get a chance for France, but the most important thing is Arsenal. As any French player would, though, you want to play for France and hopefully it can happen one day. It would be unbelievable. I won the Under-19 Euros and it was something unbelievable as well. To win the Euros with the French national team would be even more crazy. If I perform well here, maybe I will get the chance to play for France but I think the most important thing is to stay focused on Arsenal and then things will come along.
France will host the European Championships.
