Raymond Domenech has found no room in his France preliminary squad for Euro 2008 for David Trezeguet of Juventus, who despite stunning form for the Turin giants will not be making the trip to Austria and Switzerland.
"It's an organizational choice," Domenech said. "There are four or five central strikers, you can't cram each position. You have to make choices."
