Ivory Coast targets dual national ahead of 2026 World Cup

The Ivorian Football Federation would like to convince Ange-Yoan Bonny to join the national team.

An Ivorian journalist even revealed a few days ago that the 22-year-old player has opted for Ivory Coast over France. He claimed that the 22-year-old striker has agreed to join the team for next March's training camp.

However, the future of the French-born player's international career remains unclear. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Inter Milan striker is prioritizing the French team and is not considering a change of sporting nationality.

But nothing has been officially confirmed yet. That said, Ivorian football officials can still hope to bring the young player to Ivory Coast. With five goals and three assists this season in 19 Serie A matches with Inter Milan, Ange-Yoan Bonny has played for France's youth teams.
