I can only assume you're right, as i didnt read the above as the "French national" team, so thats a fail from my side and my edit in my previous comment is not valid and vill be removed.
Edit: i just checked and i have faces on all players in the french national team, by searching for france, clicking the national team and then senior squad or u21 etc. so i am not sure if the licensing issues is correct, but non the less.. everything works find for me
i use cut out faces aswell
