Monte Carlo: Lucas Digne is a "monster of a player" and deserves to be in France`s World Cup 2014 team ahead of the likes of Patrice Evra and Gael Clichy, according to Eric Di Meco.
Manchester United`s Evra and Manchester City`s Clichy have a wealth of international experience and it would be a surprise if either were left out of Didier Deschamps` for the Brazil tournament this summer.
Although Digne is far from an outright first-team left-back at Paris Saint-Germain - with Maxwell his competition at PSG - the former Bleus star believes that the 20-year-old is superior player in comparison to the French veterans.
"I can see Lucas Digne going to the World Cup without any doubt, even if he plays only a game or two for PSG," Di Meco a leading channel.
"Regarding his supposed defensive problems, compared to so-called phenomenons such as Evra or Clichy that we have, Digne is a monster of a player.
"With Maxwell, he will play a match or two. When you play for PSG, that is enough."
Digne, 20, has featured eight times for PSG in Ligue 1 this campaign.
