French federation is in touch with Joel Embiid

Joel Embiid playing for the French national team? Why not. Patrick Beesley, the head of French federation, admitted that the possibility would be great for the French side and the player is open to a dialogue. During the trip to London, Embiid said that he has a strong link with France:

"Playing with France? You never know," said Embiid. "Of course I'm not from France, if I ever play intertionally there's Cameroon but France could be a good opportunity. I have many relatives and friends in France".

Beesley said that he'll be in the United States in February to talk with Luwawu-Cabarrot and will use that opportunity to speak personally with Joel Embiid about this chance.
