Despite his successful return to Europe in Parma, Gervinho had not been recalled by coach Ibrahim Kamara to play the CAN 2019 with Côte d'Ivoire. A real regret for the captain of Elephants, Serge Aurier.
"With the season he's doing, I think it would have deserved him to be with us, " entrusted the right side of Tottenham to the Productions Ball. "I talked about it with the coach. As I say, it's someone who has been important to the team and still is. After we can talk, we can discuss but the only decision maker is the coach. When a player is performing with his club, it is normal for me to be called in selection. The final decision lies with the coach. He tries to analyze what is good for the team, whether he needs such a player or not, and he makes his selection. But for Gervinho, personally, it's a disappointment because I think it's a player who would have brought us."
Having a wide choice on the wings, Kamara obviously does not count on the old Gunner.
