Over the past few months, Jeremy Jacquet has had a rapidly rising career with Liverpool and the French national team. The 21-year-old has formed a strong bond with Virgil van Dijk, helping Liverpool keep three clean sheets in Premier League matches in just the last five matches.
Jacquet has also appeared in two recent matches of the French team in the UEFA Nations League. Coach Zinedine Zidane described his performance in the draw with Italy as "very good".
Even though he's in the midst of promotion, Jacquet shared what helps him stay grounded during this rapid development process. He told Telefoot (via Foot Mercato): "Where does my maturity come from? I don't know. Maybe from my parents. But I've always been quite a calm player with the ball, not too hasty. And then, I play the ball my way."
Despite appearing in the last two matches for France, the former Rennes midfielder is not too eager to win an official position in the squad. Jacquet said: "To be honest, I don't think much about proving myself at this point. I only have two caps for the team – I take each match one by one. I enjoy every minute the coach gives me. Everything happens very quickly."
Jacquet could continue to play in a third consecutive match for France when they face Belgium next Monday, with Dayot Upamecano suspended after his red card in the match against Italy. Maxence Lacroix, Jules Kounde and Lenny Yoro are Zidane's other options for centre-back. However, he will probably keep Jacquet in the starting lineup, with the goal of helping France maintain the top spot in Group A. Currently, France is one point ahead of Belgium before this match.
What happens next
Jacquet will likely continue to play for the French team in the next match against Belgium, while Dayot Upamecano is suspended. His performance in international matches will be closely watched, especially as coach Zinedine Zidane has praised his performance in recent matches.
