    Idrissa Gueye.

    Unlike Idrissa Gueye who plays for Senegal national team, Presnel Kimpembe plays for France national team.

    However, Kimpembe was born in Beaumont-sur-Oise, France to a Congolese father, Isaac Kimpembe, and a Haitian mother. Hence, the PSG defender is French by birth but his ancestral home is DR Congo.

    Kimpembe played for France under-20 seven times before he played for Congo’s under-21 once. He abandoned his ancestral home for France national team and made his international debut on March 27, 2018.

    The Frenchman has played for France national team 26 times and was part of the team that won the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
