The French national football team has begun preparations for the 2026 World Cup by establishing a base camp in Boston, Massachusetts. The team, comprised of 26 players selected by coach Didier Deschamps, arrived on Wednesday and are staying at the Four Seasons Hotel. Following check-in, the squad transitioned to Bentley University, which will serve as their training ground throughout this phase of preparation. This move signals the start of France’s campaign for the next World Cup, allowing the team to acclimatize and train in a dedicated environment. No details regarding upcoming friendly matches or training schedules were immediately released. The choice of Boston indicates a strategic decision to prepare in a North American location, given the 2026 tournament will be jointly hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This early establishment of a base camp demonstrates France’s proactive approach to the upcoming competition.
