Bournemouth defender Adrien Truffert has been named in Zinédine Zidane's first extended France squad. The 24-year-old left-back is understood to have received a preliminary call-up for the upcoming international window.
Téléfoot reported the selection, which marks a significant step for the Liège-born player. Truffert arrived at Bournemouth last summer and immediately became a mainstay, starting all 38 Premier League matches in the 2025-26 season. He contributed one goal and five assists during that campaign and has started the first four league games of the current term.
His call-up comes as Bournemouth sit 15th in the Premier League with three points from four matches. The team's recent form reads one win, three draws and one defeat from their last five outings across all competitions. Their next challenge is a home fixture against Liverpool on 20 September.
Truffert is a product of the Stade Rennais academy, where he made nearly 200 senior appearances, scoring nine goals and providing 23 assists. His only previous senior international cap was a 25-minute cameo in a Nations League match against Denmark in September 2022. This new opportunity under Zidane represents a major career milestone.
