Wigan player determined to make his international mark
Wigan midfielder Charles N'Zogbia is excited to be named in France's next squad and is determined to take his chance.
The 24-year-old is one of 15 uncapped players named in new boss Laurent Blanc's first squad to take on Norway in a friendly next week.
Blanc has rung the changes for the game after deciding to suspend all 23 players involved in the World Cup fiasco plagued by failure and infighting under predecessor Raymond Domenech.
The Wigan player is delighted to get the call-up and now hopes to impress Blanc and keep his place in the side.
Waiting
N'Zogbia told
L'Equipe: "I've been waiting for this for a long time.
"This proves that, with hard work, you can get there. Even though my inclusion is due to the absence of the World Cup players, it is a good chance to show what I can do.
"We will see how it goes in Norway, but I know very well that now that I have been included by Les Bleus, the hardest thing will be staying there."
