Julien Lachuer urges Zidane to call up Ludovic Ajorque (Brest)
After Brest’s 5-1 win over Angers, Lachuer pressures Zinédine Zidane: Ajorque has 69 Ligue 1 goals in 204 games.
Brest head coach Julien Lachuer is pushing for a potential France call-up for Ludovic Ajorque after the Brest 5-1 Angers match on Saturday, October 10, 2026. The striker opened the scoring versus the SCO and underlined his impact both on the ball and in defensive phases.
Speaking after the game on Ligue 1+, Lachuer told Zinédine Zidane what he’s looking for, and backed Ajorque explicitly: “J’ai entendu que le sélectionneur voulait avoir un garçon qui a de la présence de la surface. S’il était devant sa télé… Je vais militer pour avoir Ludo Ajorque en équipe de France. En tout cas, il le mérite”.
He also pointed to the broader message: Ajorque’s Ligue 1 numbers back him up, with 69 goals in 204 appearances. The coach added that the aim is ambition, not pressure, and framed the striker as a reference for Brest’s academy players.
