Niels Nkounkou has admitted that he has to do a lot more in an Everton jersey before he can make it to the French senior team.
Nkounkou signed a three-year deal with Everton this summer after leaving Marseille after the contract expired.
The defender was part of Carlo Ancelotti’s first team squad and has played for Toffees four times in all competitions this season.
The left-back played in the U18 and U19 teams for France and is determined to be promoted to the national team under Didier Deschamps.
Nkounkou’s immediate goal is to make sure he becomes part of France’s U-23 selection as soon as possible.
He insisted that his ultimate goal is to join the senior team, but admitted that it must first precede consistent performances in the Everton jersey.
The defender, who was asked about his international ambitions, told the French sports newspaper L’Equipe: “I look far, yes.
« I would love to have a chance to be called to the top, but I know I have a lot more to show with Everton. ”
The 20-year-old will be looking for more opportunities to play for Everton over the next few weeks due to Lucas Digne’s injury.
