00:05 What followed was much more complicated for him,
00:09 with a season with serious injuries where he played very little.
00:15 This certainly prevented him from being part of the World Cup group.
00:21 Then he went back to a season where he was followed regularly,
00:27 where he was able to regain his football and athletics skills
00:32 by winning a lot of matches.
00:35 If some people don't know, he's still playing.
00:39 The situation in my head was clear for Renji.
00:43 There were two things.
00:45 One was that I wanted him to regain his ability on the pitch.
00:50 And while he was there, to give the young players time to play,
00:56 who had shown great potential during the World Cup,
01:00 and to gain more experience.
01:04 I made that decision because I think that the French team
01:10 will be stronger with Renji.
