The trophy-winning Frenchman, who arrives at Selhurst Park looking to build on the Eagles' own recent penchant for silverware, took charge of his first session out on the grass on Monday afternoon, as the Eagles who have not been involved in World Cup duty kicked their first balls of the 2026/27 season.
