Ekitike laughed quietly.
"That sounds like family."
"What about you?" Larsson asked him.
Ekitike shrugged.
"Depends."
"Depends?"
"France call-up list comes soon," he said. "If I get called, I stay with the national team."
"And if not?"
He spread his hands.
"Vacation."
Knauff leaned back against the glass.
"I'm going somewhere warm," he said. "Somewhere with no football fields."
Larsson nodded approvingly.
"That sounds like a good plan."
Then Knauff looked toward Lukas.
"And you?"
Lukas shrugged lightly.
"Same thing as him," he said, nodding toward Ekitike. "National team list comes out Friday."
Knauff laughed.
"If they don't call you," he said, "I'd like to know who they plan to call instead."
Larsson shook his head.
"Seriously."
Even Ekitike smiled slightly.
They continued talking quietly for several minutes, the conversation drifting between small jokes and half-serious thoughts about what came next once the season ended.
