Zinedine Zidane left impressed again by another performance from Jeremy Jacquet

Jeremy Jacquet earned his second cap on Friday night

France head coach Zinedine Zidane was impressed once again by another strong performance from Jeremy Jacquet.

The 21-year-old earned his second cap on Friday night, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1-1 draw with Italy in the UEFA Nations League.

The centre-back made his France debut four days earlier in a 1-0 victory over Belgium.

Assessing Jacquet’s most recent display, Zidane told reporters: “Very good. Very, very good. Brave.

“He wasn’t afraid to come out a long way. Very good in the duels. He was, once again, very good. I said it four times.”

Jacquet has made an impressive start to the 2026-27 season for both club and country.

He was ever-present for Liverpool before the international break and was also nominated for September’s Premier League Player of the Month award.

On his first time in France’s senior set-up, Jeremy Jacquet said: “Better than I imagined.

“To train with all these great players, it’s just a great pleasure. I’m just trying to make the most of every moment.”
