Breel Embolo is called up for Switzerland for Euro qualifying!

Breel Embolo is called up for Switzerland for Euro qualifying!
The Monegasque striker, who has already scored 12 goals in Ligue 1 this season, was logically called up by the coach of the "Nati" to play the first two qualifying matches for Euro 2024.

Back to Switzerland! Three months after the World Cup, it’s time to go back to international duty for several Monégasques. Among them, Breel Embolo has been called up by Murat Yakin for Switzerland, as they start playing qualifying for Euro 2024. After two goals at the World Cup, the Rouge et Blanc striker has 12 goals in the league this season, the best total of his career.

Two good tests to start

Eliminated in the round of 16 in Qatar by Portugal, the Nati will return to the qualifying for the European championships, which will take place next year in Germany. The program starts with a match against Belarus in Serbia on Saturday March 25 (6 p.m.) before they host Israel three days later at the Stade Geneva (8:45 p.m.).

Getting off to a good start

These two important matches can allow the Swiss to take the lead in a manageable group, also made up of Andorra, Kosovo and Romania. Especially since Switzerland had an honorable run at the last Euro in 2021, with a quarterfinal lost only on penalties against Spain (1-1, 3-1). This was after, they eliminated France in the Round of 16. Good luck Breel! 🇨🇭
